In the Netherlands everyone will be vaccinated by July.

Looks like the begin of May will be the turning point in most Western European countries.
Ahhh... a rustic drive through France... looking forward to it already. Cheese, wine, good food, warm weather...

You going to Blackpool? Eastbourne?

I think you may have spoken too soon with a possible third wave looming over Europe (and EU countries breaking rank to make side deals to hastily acquire more vaccines).

Let's see how the unity of the EU fares under the pressure, and tying into the title of the thread, if you will indeed envy Britain's maneuverability as an independent nation.

Nobody does.
As I’ve already pointed out, the EU ballsed up the vaccine business (actually, various EU countries undermined the pan-EU drive, but that’s an internal affair).

You don’t seem to comprehend how badly the UK is being damaged economically at the moment.

Anyhoo... have you started eating hake, lobster and shellfish yet? Better support that fishing industry before you have none left!

One thing goes wrong and you deem it the end of civilization.
And one thing in the UK goed right and you see it as proof that Britannia will once again rule the waves.

As a block, the EU is a powerful woolly mammoth, able to bulldoze its way successfully in many situations, such as trade. In contrast, the UK is a gazelle, lacking the bulk of the woolly mammoth but a much more agile entity.

The future belongs to gazelles, not woolly mammoths. The UK will bounce back.

It must be great to criticize other countries without ever revealing your own.

Are you by chance a resident of Atlantis?

I have asked you twice already if you are immune to spelling mistakes and that if one is identified can you fairly be described as near illiterate?

Both times you have dodged the question, knowing as you do that you have made many such errors. (Usually blamed on your phone).

The analogy of the woolly mammoth clearly went over your head and exceeded your own literacy. (sic).

It’s a fish, just so you know.
