Comments by "Drew Hodge" (@drewhodge3820) on "Ireland suspends Oxford-AstraZeneca Covid vaccine over blood clots - BBC News" video.

  1. Ireland doesn't have enough AZ vaccines, so they suspend the use of it, to cover up the fact they dont have any to give. More EU cover ups and Ireland becomes the EU's lacky AGAIN. Isn't it funny that Ireland is the only country to fully support continued membership of the failed EU project (in a recent EU Commission poll across the whole of the EU27)

  3.  @trojan3799  The Republic of Ireland is the largest financial contributor into the EU's budget for the next 7 years (Per Capita) The EU is punishing Ireland for being a tax haven inside the EU. Ireland has the largest national debt in the EU per capita. Ireland has just lost a large volume of its fishing quotas in Irish waters. https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/ireland-to-pay-over-3200-to-eu-for-every-man-woman-and-child-in-the-country-over-the-next-seven-years-39389257.html The ROI will be the largest financial contributor into the EU's Covid recovery fund over the next few decades (per capita) because its all worked out on the ROI's revenue for having lower Corporation Tax inside the EU which has meant big companies like Google and Facebook moved to the ROI to pay less tax inside the EU. Lets not forget the Republic of Ireland is due to pay 25 Billion this month to repay the Irish Banking Crisis loan, that the EU lumbered that debt on the ROI, when it wasn't the sole responsibility of the ROI. Yes i agree the ROI did well from EU membership initially, the reality is the ROI has been used and tossed aside by the EU Commission now they have no further use for the ROI in Brexit negotiations. It's the political establishment that are Pro EU but the normal people of the ROI have to support the EU now because they are in too deep. Without the tax revenue made from being a tax haven inside the EU, the ROI would be financially screwed. All those big companies would jump ship overnight. The ROI's main revenue of goods is agriculture exports, when you consider the UK buys more of that from the ROI than the combined EU27. The ROI has to support everything the EU commission says or they will become more reliant on the UK. The majority of the ROI's food exports go to the USA, Canada and the UK ( in that order). Unless you look at the ROI's service industry which includes the likes of Google and Facebooks service industry from the ROI into the EU. So yes the ROI will do anything the EU Commission tells them to do. Otherwise the ROI would be bankrupt. On paper the ROI looks like they are thriving with their massive turnover but its a digital economy due to the ROI having low Corporation tax. (in effect making the ROI a tax haven inside the EU) If the EU Commission put a stop to that activity the economy of the ROI would crash overnight. So the ROI has to do as it is told. This is the reason the UK escaped the EU's economic slavery.

  5.  @ronaldobrien6870  What should we do??? The EU stuffed up the vaccine orders and we dont have any AZ vaccines to give out. Lets say their is a problem with the vaccine so no one complains in the ROI.

  6. We have already seen numerous dirty tricks by the EU commission to get more AstraZeneca vaccines. From raiding AZ and trying to ban vaccines entering the UK and triggering Article 16, Saying the AZ vaccine doesn't work on the over 65's. Export restrictions until April that has now been extended to June and will probably be extended until the winter. Stopping exports of pre-purchased vaccines being shipped to Australia. Now the EU says the vaccine causes blood clots?!!!! Is that because they hope countries might cancel their orders of AZ and allow the EU to purchase them? In another attempt to catch up some how. Or is this the EU making an excuse for the lack of vaccines available and wanting to reduce the overall demand for the AZ vaccine by the public? Just the other day the EU Commission was telling lies. Trying to say the UK had an export ban. They have proved they will stop at nothing.
