Not a huge fan of Andrew Neil however that was an interesting article.
Lets be frank, we are not surprised that politicians/leaders have been untruthful.
We should not be surprised that they have done a poor job of negotiating with vaccine suppliers.
However the outrage should be forthcoming from EU citizens because this is not a simple election process or trade deal negotiations.
This is peoples health and lives.
The point about emergency powers is truly worrying for me.
It was so easy for leaders to lockdown the entire country in the name of protecting lives and the NHS.
Which clearly I support.
The danger is how easily those powers could be used for less justifiable reasons. Such as public order, preventing protests or as an economic tool.
Personal freedom should not be on the negotiation table over this.
