Re: This is to punish the UK
There aren't any pro-Brexit stories, apart from the fact that the UK has more of the Covid vaccine than the EU. Like or loath Brexit the EU made a right cock up of vaccine provision, partly for ideological reasons and partly as a result of pressure from France to buy the (not yet tested) French effort.
It will be several years before the fall out of Brexit will be apparent and disentangled from Covid fallout. There was only one prediction that can be seen to have come true so far, a deal was agreed at the last moment as per the history of the EU. Good, bad or indifferent, no one yet knows.
