Eh?
Eh? (just in case you missed it)
I doubt it would have been a 'helping hand', it would have cost us a lot of money for little gain. Talk of a 'central depot with distribution to the most needy countries first' was a bit of a giveaway, especially given that Italy, who were signed up to the deal, ended up in a far worse state than the UK.

No, the EU announced the scheme on 19th March and the UK were included if they so wished, Boris became ill in April afaik.
No need. Look at post #20
Well, he tested positive on 27th March so perhaps he wasn’t feeling so good when the applications had to be made. I don’t know when that was but probably not on the day it was announced.
anybody that just tells the truth would be a start
but this govt won power precisely for their ability to lie
so what you get is lies
lies dont get results, even though brexiters think they do
this is a brexit government, it lies, it won by using Trump campaign strategy of promoting lies

Unfortunately, Cabinet arm-twisting is limited in its reach.
"A commission spokesman said on Wednesday that Britain had taken part in meetings of the EU’s Health Security Committee where the plans were discussed. The commission first mooted the possibility of joint procurement in the committee on January 31, weeks before the first initiatives were launched, the spokesman said.
“The UK was, as all other members of the Health Security Committee meeting, aware of the work that was ongoing, and had ample opportunity to express its wish to participate in a joint procurement if it wanted to do so,” the spokesman said. “As to why it did not participate, this is obviously something on which we cannot comment.”
