    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Not been approved yet but read somewhere early summer (assuming approved), so a while yet. Think Moderna is due to land in April from memory

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Got to agree with SBD, Fernando, Dave and BSB on this and was going to raise the same point. The EU may well have right to the supplies manufactured in the UK, but if we ordered first and by three months (and approved the vaccine a month ago), how can the EU justify receiving UK manufactured...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Not good at all. I wonder if the AZ situation has given them an excuse to do something they wanted to do anyway !

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Think GSK is tied in with Sanofi (the one that’s not going well) - I had to Google that ! Novovax is the one Fernando mentioned. Would be manufactured in U.K. as well I think

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Was thinking about cabinets/shadow cabinets yesterday (I blame the dull life of lockdown !!). One of the reasons both main parties are poor at the moment is neither appear to have a lot of their best ministers on their front benches. Talent wasted on back benches is inexcusable really Sorry...

    great explanation dubed (clearer than the reports !) ps anyone interested in shorting Betting on Zero (Netflix) is worth a watch. Fundamentally disagree with it, although quite liked it done to Herbalife as there is at least a (pretence of) moral angle to it. Also been said before but The Big...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I think he does take it seriously SBD, he just can’t control his gob ! Johnson needs to be careful what he says, I don’t think keeping the union together is a lost cause (I hope it isn’t) but he’s got to cut out these comments and focus on SNP performance, consider devolving additional powers (I...

    gotcha. I was talking about the European public understanding the current slow vaccine roll out isnt an AZ problem though (as it’s not even approved yet)

    Did I say something funny Brylowes ? Probably a first I know but was accidental if so ! ps European public, not ours

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I know, it’s bizarre. It’s a massive smokescreen due to the poor purchasing and roll out. Surely the public can put two and two together and see that’s the current problems have nothing to do with AZ Ps Maybe there’s something else at play as well. Just looking at the vaccine numbers per...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    To be fair I don’t think we have at the moment. If/when we do I think we have already indicated we would look to help other countries. Nothing to do with Brexit, but based on the EUs recent behaviour I’d say fuck ‘em and send any spares to Africa/developing nations (would probably do that...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Thing is I do sympathise, they were trying to do it as a bloc so everyone was treated equally but ultimately they dragged their feet, tried to keep everyone (French by all accounts) happy and they are where they are. Also I presume Pfizer has supplied the EU with far more vaccines even though we...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Exactly Dave, we’re owed a load of doses ourselves. And we signed it off a month a ago. It took a couple of weeks to get it up to 2m per week I’m not going to get into whole EU debate again, as it’s been done to death. we’ve seen their bullying before though but this is another level

    Guardian overview article mate, there’s a couple of other more detailed ones but this captured the main quotes https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jan/28/thursday-briefing-spectre-of-vaccine-trade-war-between-britain-and-eu

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Charming... Britain is on a collision course with the European Union over vaccine shortages after Brussels refused to accept that people in the UK have first claim on Oxford/AstraZeneca doses produced in British plants. Stella Kyriakides, the EU’s health commissioner, said the UK should not...

    Massive win that. Deserved as well. Played well in patches (few too many long balls but poor conditions). Also fair play to Ohare, struggled with final ball recently but delivered tonight

    Match Thread Sheffield Wednesday

    Like the look of the team (would do even more so if Walker and/or godden were fit and back in). Good to see Marosi on bench as well...surely ready to come back in very soon ?

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Im saying youre ignoring the comments I’m making regarding the major areas that should be investigated (carehomes and contracts/cronyism) and then repeating those points like I’m arguing against it ps this highlights the timeline of the decision making and some of the errors made...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    No point debating if you’re ignoring half the stuff I write Clint (I even said returning people to care homes was one of the three biggest errors/issues of the pandemic and should be investigated, as should the contracts/cronyism) I’ll also dig out Sage minutes (again)
