After royally stuffing up the entire pandemic, the UK government has been trumpeting how it ‘leads the world’ with its wonderful vaccination effort. Actually all it’s doing is hogging all the vaccine for itself, ditto for the US. And they got special approval to start much earlier than everybody else, before the vaccines were even fully tested, to try to stop the tsunami of death. Both should be condemned for years to come, as should their poisonous belief in the Economy, which has slaughtered nearly 700,000 people so far.
