It doesn't really make sense to let the virus incubate resistant strains outside of the richer nations.

Are South Africa willing to use the Oxford-AZ vaccine yet? If yes then he has a very good point, if no then just another hypocrite.

That's not how it works ffs. Even the telegraph reports it better than that little trite soundbite. You used to be better than this


How does it work then - I was under the impression (clearly erroneously) that is is all about proximity to other mobile devices...


Exposed to other ...

Feel like shit today. Different symptoms to last time. More painful.



Pfizer or AZ?


AZ, I was more achy overall and foggy first dose. No real fog this time but I couldn't sleep in injection arm side last night, can't raise my arm more than 90deg without it becoming really quite painful ...

meanwhile, EU states constant flip-flopping over the AZ vaccine, and the promotion of misinformation is having a completely foreseeable effect on vaccine confidence

Interesting - Biden claiming all US adults will have being offered a shot by May 1st which is even more ambitious than the UKs target 'by the end of May'. Confidence in supplies must be high.

Not understanding the hate for funding T&T - yes its galling to throw good money after bad but if we don't have it we are putting the whole farm on vaccines - and vaccines need to information from test results to detect and develop against new variants.

It's not the funding that's the issue ...

Naughty of Mr Hancock if he knew it was that long, but still doesn’t change or invalidate my points about what the judgement was about despite the wibbles of the deranged. The judgement found and only found that the Secretary state was unlawful in publishing the contracts late. It didn’t find ...

Well, the fact that a high court judge has found against Hancock and stated that his department have unlawfully witheld details of £100's of millions of contracts that have been awarded to "friends" donors and financial supporters of of the Tory Party, the least that should be done ...

So how does this work? BBC headline is that "Social contact limits over from 21 June". Then the line underneath it states "Boris Johnson says coronavirus will be eased in four stages, with changes led by 'data not dates'".


There's 4 stages, with a minimum of 5 weeks between stages. So if all ...

Is English your first language?

I agree it is progress, excellent progress. Good to see that the courts have found in favour of the Good Law Project and that they have standing in challenging the Gov procurement processes despite the Government's arguments to the contrary. Without standing ...

The Government sought to dismiss the legal challenge by claiming the Good Law Project needed to be an ‘economic operator’ to have standing. However the courts judgment was that it is unrealistic that economic operators would have challenged Government’s breach of the law in these ...

Of course the court didnt say some of the contracts were 'dodgy' thats my own description of the contracts. The court was not asked to review the contracts at all, it was asked to consider if the Secretary of State had failed to publish the contracts in line with the law of the land i.e. 30 ...

I haven't been able to track down the judgement, have you got a link? Did the court really say that some of the contracts were "dodgy"?

It doesn’t say anything about any of the contracts being dodgy, it doesn’t say ...

Thank you m'learned friend. So I was right then


I think the term 'technical' is redundant here and wasn't used by the judge involved, it is a bit like the intention to break international law in a 'technical and limited' way. The Secretary of State was found to have breached the law full ...

The High Court found that was a technical breach in that the contracts were not published within 30 days and Hancock admitted it. The contracts were published published on average 17 days late. No judgement was made on the contracts themselves, corruption or cronyism. That’s why beyond the ...

What exactly do you two believe the repercussions should be? Explain the breach and what the the repercussions should be.

Quite
It will all be ignored in the long term

All well and good, but are there repercussions?

What's the point of a High Court action if nobody is held to account?

Quite
It will all be ...

Speaking of Tories, I've been watching some Rick Stein programmes about Cornwall recently. By any comparison Cornwall is an extremely poor county but all its MPs are Conservative. No wonder they win so many elections.


I believe traditionally it was a Liberal area, but got all Brexity and ...

That really was another stunning example of why the bumblecunt was unfit for any high office.

He continually fails to engage his brain, before he opens his gob; & this inevitably leads to gaffs, & worse.

When he was FS, he got a UK citizen thrown in gaol, because he repeated the ...
