Because it makes zero sense for many countries in equally or worse states to take the action and not let their own get home should the UK take the same action no?

Would the EU have managed to get 80m doses?
If so, would we have got half?
Looks to me as if staying out meant paying more but getting more. Seems sensible to me.
I suspect hussein kanji knows this too, but is just a deceitful little prick trying to have a dig where there's none to be had.

The tweet isn't very accurate, we've bought 7m doses of the Moderna vaccine not 40m. We have bought 40m doses of the Pfizer/Biontech one.

Yeah what’s another couple of hundred mil when we’re throwing around billions aimlessly!

Well, that's ok then!
My point was how do we know the rest of the tweet is accurate when he's out by 33m in the 1st sentence and whats' his source for the price the UK paid for vaccines (I don't have access to the article).

This current government makes me believe it.

Let's be fair, the govt hedged bets on Vaccine orders and didn't do a bad job. The AZ one will come through and we have a 100 million at cost price.
As long as the safety profile for the AZ one is good, efficacy at anything over 60% means we should jump all over it, especially if the vulnerable are getting the Pfizer one anyway.
Personally I have some confidence in the rollout. And we can all hope for a normal summer

Would be good if the people could ratify the deal. The first vote was advisory, now we will - really for the first time - be able to see what leaving the EU means for day to day trade.
There is still a lot left to figure out. How the UK moves forward with other nations trying to stimulate trade. It is a kind of exciting time. Clearly what we lose is greater than what we gain from Brexit. But it is change, and with change comes opportunity and the chance to refresh. I feel like our government has been in limbo for 4 years. Not just May/Boris etc but the various departments who have not been doing anything major in this period, just holding tight, preparing for brexit. Now at least, the country should be able to move forward.
The effect on London could still be quite profound over the longer term. It might well be a nicer city to live in. Be less expensive. Who knows? It won't be such an international hub as it has been. Don't get me wrong we'll still be a huge capital, just over time, there will be some stasis where there was growth.

Happy Brexit Day all. Hope Boris comes down your chimney with a sack full of unicorns and bendy bananas.
A whole 4 years and untold millions wasted all because of Tory infighting in their ranks, let’s change the lives of 67m people to resolve their problems. and the end result will be the ERG etc still won’t be happy with the deal.

I’m just looking forward to him spinning as a victory a deal worse than the one May had. And announced late on Christmas Eve to avoid scrutiny.

Congrats on the deal.

Regardless of whatever Boris is saying now, the devil will of course be in the detail of the agreement text which isn't available yet.
But it's good news that a deal has finally been reached, even if not encompassing everything we had before, such as services.
