Would everybody be happy under a different economic model.
Yes.

Ok. So that’s one. What about the rest of the UK. I will go with the majority, as we all have to in a democracy.

I disagree that people with money do not care about those that do not have as much . Its too broad a statement to judge people like that . There are plenty of wealthy people who give enormously both time and money to help others .
Pammy, help me out here - is thor using one of those straw man things to try and confuse me?

Brexit is the broken sewage pipe disgorging its filth into the mains water supply of our economy, politics, society & nation.

Not surprised that he doesn't mention Brexit anymore.
For him it was just 'means to an end' in pursuit of getting the top job.

Funny to see the new DUP leader mega posturing with the EU when his party helped Johnson to create the situation they are now regarding as unacceptable!

So desperate is the government for a trade deal, ANY TRADE DEAL, that they are willing to slide away from commitment to action on climate change!
And Liz Truss still seems to be a favourite for replacing the current Johnson cabinet simpletons!

If I have to be seen as a member of one tribe or another then l choose 'European'. However, living here in the EU has shown me how bureaucratic and inefficient Brussels can be. They royally went missing during the immigrant crisis at a time when when all the member states looked up for leadership - and got nothing. They've done it again with the Covid measures so that each state is following its own path. Ask them to deal with internet cookies and you'll get solid action, aak them to deal with Hungary's relentless march towards fascism and you get only rhetoric.

That said, when l look at Boris and his gang.....

Interesting theory. Interesting though how Spain, Denmark, Portugal, France and Italy all have a higher % of their population vaccinated than us though.

Still, at least there was no red tape for us now.

If what you say is correct probably due to those Nations being far more compliant, appreciative and sensible as regards their health and well being. Also , not full of ill informed conspiracy theorists.

Ah right. So regardless of take up, you’d agree that being in the EU didn’t hamper anyone’s opportunity to get the vaccine?
