Biden is Irish, Republican irish in ancestry, so no friend of Britain. Nor is Nancy Pelosi.

Still morons like Goldfinger prefer them over someone, whatever his faults, loves Britain,and wants to get a decent FTA with Britain.

Clearly the likes of fannyflaps are either self loathing Brits (I'm assuming they are "British" and not of foreign ethnic origins)or they're foreign,a fifth column living amongst us.

Wonder how long before they realise Beijing Biden isnt the UK's friend,but the EU's

Brexit Britain glows while EU's vaccination efforts look very sicklyUK has now vaccinated more people than the EU27's five largest countries combined?© Brexit Facts4EU.OrgEU's performance since it took over COVID health last year has been lamentableWhatever readers' views about Covid-19, about the measures being used, or about vaccines,this report is not about those issues.This short report is about the incompetence of the EU and an early success for Brexit Britain.Earlier this year we reported on the disaster that was – and still is – the EU technocracy's response to Covid-19. In April, for example, we revealed that the EU's new head of its €2bn per year "European Research Council" had resigned in a blaze of publicity, which was barely mentioned in the UK.On his departure he condemned the EU's inability to coordinate an effective Coronavirus campaign. He described the plan he had devised as having created an "internal political thunderstorm" and that it had "disintegrated upon impact" with parts of the EU Commission.We also reported on the EU's "Commissioner for Crisis Management"Yes, the EU has a Crisis Management Commissioner. Given all the EU's problems this must be the worst job in the world right now – putting aside the massive salary, benefits, perks, pension, accommodation, limos, and expense account.This particular Commissioner's name is Janez Lenar?i? and he's from Slovenia. Slovenia is an EU member country which has a population of 2.1 million – smaller than that of West Yorkshire. Its economy is less than 1/50th of the size of the UK's.Like almost all EU Commissioners, Mr Lenar?i? has never held what we would call "a proper job" in his life. He has only ever worked in politics and in the EU.?Since April, things for the EU only got worseSince we wrote that report, things have got worse. By June the EU Commission had somehow persuaded its member countries that it should be the sole body able to negotiate with the various drugs companies which were competing to create and deliver effective vaccines. The EU refused to let the UK be involved in any decision-making, and the UK therefore declined to participate in the EU scheme.Cue six months of delay in the EU, but rapid action in the UK.Back in June, Remainer-Rejoiners in the United Kingdom establishment wailed when the UK Government decided not to participate in the EU Commission's combined effort, and instead decided to go its own way. They might want to reflect long and hard on our chart below.BREXIT FACTS4EU.ORG SUMMARYThe UK is streets ahead of the EU27 in its vaccination programmeThe UK has performed over 4.7 million vaccination dosesIn the latest figures this represents 6.96 per 100 peopleThe average for the EU countries is 1.35 per 100 people - that's less than 20% of what the UK has doneThe UK has undertaken more total vaccination doses than the five biggest EU countries combined?© Brexit Facts4EU.Org - click to enlargeOBSERVATIONSLike Brexit, the Covid crisis has polarised sections of our society. As researchers into facts, various members of the Facts4EU.Org team have been very troubled by the quality of the information being presented to the public on the whole Covid question each week.That said, our article above steers clear of the debate of the rights and wrongs in the Covid world we are living in. Instead it looks at just one thing.Regardless of ours' or readers' views about various aspects of the whole Covid debate, how well have the UK Government and EU Commission done in implemeting their policies?The answer to this question is very stark indeed. The EU Commission's collective, imposed, bureaucratic approach has been little short of a disaster. In contrast, the UK Government appears to have been fleet of foot and highly effective.As the BBC seems to prefer "Brexit is turning out to be a nightmare, as we predicted" stories, we thought readers might want some absolute and basic facts on the story of our current age which show up the EU to be what we have always said it is: bureaucratic, undemocratic, and dysfunctional.Brexit is not "done" and the challenges mountUnfortunately some people now think Brexit is "done" and not surprisingly the whole Covid thing has hit the level of donations we receive, which were already less than we needed to survive. We are most grateful to readers who have donated in recent days, but we badly need more readers to do the same. 10 readers donating £500 per month, or 50 readers donating £100 per month, or 1000 readers donating £5 per month - on top of the one-off donations and monthly donations we currently receive, this would just about keep us going

"Geck - it's just a FACT. Boris left financials out of the deal"


Left out or due to intransigence of EU unable to get an agreement on it?
Your claim of FACT is wrong.


"and so London is losing £5Billion PER DAY! Trillion per Year..."

Are they losing £5bn a day, and will it be every day, for the whole yearto get that trillion you claim is FACT?

What you claim is FACT is actually supposition absence evidence, an opinion colourd by your tedious Remoaner bias.

FYI
Europe is the past.
Asia / Americas the future.
Europe is well past its sell by date on so many front - demographics being one(hence the import of millions from rest of the world)

Not taking sides cos Im not much interested in US politics but try the same exercise with Boris. Can he be blamed? Would it have been greatly different under any other leader? Surely Covid response has had a tad of an influence

Travellers coming to UK without negative Covid tests waved through border controls

Dozens of people who possibly have Covid let into UK since rules requiring pre-departure tests were introduced on Monday

Travellers without negative Covid-19 tests are being fined and waved through border controls into the UK despite Britons in a similar situation abroad being turned away.

Some 30 air passengers have so far been fined £500 each after arriving in the UK without the correct certificate showing a negative PCR, lateral flow or LAMP test result from within 72 hours of departure.

The Home Office confirmed that they had been allowed on their way – meaning dozens of people who possibly have Covid have been let into the UK since rules requiring pre-departure tests were introduced at 4am on Monday.

By contrast, Britons who arrived in Spain and Italy without the proper documentation or PCR tests were sent back on their planes in a series of incidents over the festive period.

It emerged that airlines which allowed passengers to fly without appropriate negative test results face fines of up to £2,000 per traveller. Under the Government's new regulations, they are required to refuse boarding to anyone who does not have the correct documentation.
