Why won't it be covered by an NDA or otherwise by any general commercial confidentiality obligation?

They are as guilty of corruption, centralising of powers, general incompetence and so on as anyone else. Just a microcosm of British nationalism and an attempt (seemingly successful) to divide people on the same island for no real reason

You've got to give it to the European Commission for yesterday.
Never have we seen the main political parties in Northern Ireland, and the Irish and UK Governments, so united, so quickly, in agreement about something before.
For bringing groups of people together on a particular subject it really was a first.

Missus had her weekly call with her parents last night, all in Dutch but managed to catch “why aren’t you guys giving us the vaccine??” (In a jokey way), but interesting to hear how it’s seen from the other side.
To be honest with all the other vaccines coming on line now I’d be tempted to do a bit of good old concern trolling and offer it for humanitarian reasons if they need it. “U.K. always happy to help out struggling nations” sort of thing.
They’ve been unbelievably petty.

Because the contract would very like as per other examples be for delivery to the UK and not specify how they are shared out amongst the UK.
I.e. the AZ/EU contract only talked about the supply to EU not which countries would get them.

couldn't sleep last night and was lying awake thinking about all sorts of shit.
I realised as much as I hate the tory party I'd never fall out with someone because they voted tory.
I disagree with Brexit but I'd never fall out with someone who voted for it.
But I don't think I can have anything to do with someone who's a covid denier, some of the shit I've read makes my fucking blood boil. Imagine trying to deal with losing family members to this shit and having to hear people saying that?
On the same level as cunts like Alex Jones saying mass shootings were fake and his crack pot followers driving grieving parents to take their own lives.
Absolute vermin.

one major blunder after another from the EU on this issue.
At least they've backed down on their NI protocol threat.

Yeah, ultimately if we're all vaccinated, but other countries carry on, developing all manner of variants, it doesn't help us long term.
So we need to be the bigger (wo)men, and take the PR win, which is in our interest anyway.

you're embarrassing yourself mate.
Not said a peep about the absolute shit show the tories handling of this pandemic has been so you just look stupid weaponising this fuck up by the EU.
If you actually cared about the average UK citizen getting fucked over you'd have been all over the cronyism and the worlds worse per capita death rate as well but you haven't been.

He's the weirdo that said Arlene Foster was delighted by the EU trade deal 1 dfay before her party voted against it.
Truth and reality isn't a strong point for him.

Why would I?
I don’t think any leader could predict what’s happening or do any better tbh.
Yes Boris has been slow I agree.

Lots of leaders did a lot better.
Forget the death toll, what about the cronyism? 22 billion for track and trace. The person responsible for the biggest data breach in UK history put in charge.
If you want to complain about it, guess who handles the complaint, her husband. If you're okay with that then fair play, they'll be delighted to hear it knowing that they'll get away with their next scam as well.

Where did I say I liked it? I made a glib joke about it.
Why lie about things that are easy to check?

stand alone countries can't get into trade wars with the EU, the States or China because they won't win.
I actually think Johnson has been the most mature I've seen him this week and he's seems to have kept a lid on the crack pots in his party regarding this issue as well.

Every leader has done better. We have the highest death rate in the world. Killed more in the second wave than we did the first because “we” learned the sum total of fuck all from the first wave.
Boris’ best is the worst in the world. It really is that simple.

Come off it. You won’t catch the Tories handing their cronies billions and when they fail to deliver just sweep it under the carpet.

The internal full out between member states and EU is going to be massive.
They will all play happy families in the media. But the knifes will be out for UVDL.
But in other news as so much happens yesterday. Novavax looks a really exciting and game changing vaccine.

The J+J/Janssen one does Vaccine is the long term game changer is as expected we have to keep dealing with Covid-19 each winter.
A high efficiency singe dose vaccine could make vaccinating the vulnerable much easier each winter.
