The UK has vaccinated 24 million people.
9 million of those vaccines were made inside the EU, and shipped to the UK.

Meanwhile the UK isn't allowing any of the vaccines it makes to be shipped abroad, even when theres deals in place to buy said vaccines.
...
Like why should the EU be the only one to play by the rules?
When other nations are perfectly fine, with not allowing vaccines to be shipped out of their terratories?

Charles Michel had to backtrack after telling the same lies you are telling. Will you do the same?

Oxford invented a vaccine 1/10th the cost of the nearest competitor and promised to provide it to everyone with no profit during the pandemic. If it was up to me, the EU wouldn't be getting any of the Oxford vaccine. The UK should be getting 100% of the first 140m doses. We should have ensured all of the vaccine was produced in a country that can be trusted even if it meant rollout took longer.

At the bolded part: Source?

Also, Oxford invented that vaccine... but they did so in cooperation with Astra, the Swedish part of AstraZeneca. Oxford themselves wouldn't have been able to do it without access to their facilities. The vaccine is a product of UK-EU cooperation, if you like it or not.

Also, the UK should have gotten 100% of the first 140M doses? You are aware that over half of those are getting produced in the EU, right? So in short, you want the EU to help develop the vaccine, produce it for you, ship it free of charge and give the EU a kick in the arse for helping develop the vaccine and producing it for you and expect them not to raise their voice in protest?
