  1. It's remarkable that the UK is still peddling that lie on the vaccine, truth is, the EU countries always had the choice of going the route the UK did on buying vaccines, they choose to do it at an EU level because the EU has more clout than any of its members and in the short term it started out slow but longer term, the EU ended up being more successful than the UK and the US, hence why when the EU countries were doing better, the UK government went from bragging to staying quiet on that.

  2. As the saying goes, you can't polish a turd, even thought you can but that's another story lol. The Conservative, I understand their position, they are too invested into Brexit that turning around would be humiliating for the party with how deep they've dug in on Brexit. Labour on the other hand are looking even worse, they are basically saying what they think the British people want to hear, they don't stand for anything on Brexit or other policies and only care about getting into power and if that means going along with Brexit, they will, regardless of how much damage it does to the UK, power is all that counts to them. Pretending Brexit isn't happening like Labour are doing is very likely going to put fuel on the fire for the independence movements in Scotland, Northern Ireland and even Wales, at the end of the day, there are a lot of people that feel they are not being listened to on this and many people in those 3 countries will be thinking, do we really want to be run by this lot, the Tories that don't care and Labour that don't want to hear all sides. It gets even better with the Tories and the courts trying to block Scotland from having a referendum, imagine if the EU said to the UK that you can't have a referendum on leaving the EU? how would the Brits take that? the last thing Scotland wants is for Westminster to dictate to Scotland on what they can and can't do, that could furl the fires on more people in Scotland supporting independence and I suspect the SNP are going to take advantage of that. But seriously, if the UK government were smart, they would give Scotland a vote, let them decide for themselves and make a case for why they should stay, but outright blocking them isn't going to go down well with the people and could actually lead to Scotland leaving sooner rather than later.
