Its called looking for a scapegoat.I get the impression that politicians are trying to "deceptively" blame us and Astra Zeneca for their slow vaccination roll out compared to ours which has been much faster

We know someone like that don't we Johnny?Macron hasn't the humility to admit he has made mistakes.
It's funny how you see the bad in Macron but not Johnson.Nasty piece of ****.
Macron can't bear France being bailed out again by his hated Britain PAUL BALDWIN (msn.com)
What a truly hateful little man he is. Macron has monumentally lost control in France. French people are dying, lots of French people, because of his ego. Got that? People are dying at the altar of this little man's ego. And he's looking to shift the blame. Macron has mismanaged France's Covid response from day one. He has been, by his own admission, too slow, too scared and too stupid to grasp the scale of the problem. He is perhaps too used to diktats from the EU taking responsibility out of his hands - but he can't shirk this one.
He has utterly failed the French people and is now using that last refuge of the political scoundrel - bare-faced nationalism - in an attempt to shift the blame to Britain.
It's our fault you see.
Our fault for responding quickly to what was clearly a major world crisis (Macron took six weeks to even think about doing anything) and obviously our fault for investing heavily and early in a successful vaccine.
Macon meanwhile has sat idle seemingly only finding time to so comprehensively bad-mouth Britain's AstraZeneca vaccine he started to sound like a crazed anti-vaxxer.
Initially he cynically wanted to buy time for a potentially lucrative French vaccine in development to come to market - but when French scientists failed and abandoned the project he still couldn't bring himself to back Britain.
Meanwhile his repeated false claims over the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine have led to him stockpile millions of unused jabs and his only achievement is convincing more than 60 percent of the French public the AstraZeneca/Oxford jab is unsafe.
They are dying because of ignorance and stupidity and nationalism - and of course Macron's political ego.
The European Medicines Agency has certified the AstraZeneca jab as safe - but this is not about facts, it's about smears and point-scoring.
A week ago the EU (and Macron) were attacking Russia (still subject to EU sanctions for annexing Crimea, with some Kremlin officials also under international restrictions for the poisoning and jailing of opposition activist Alexei Navalny remember).
Yet yesterday Macron took his begging bowl to the Kremlin imploring Putin to consider sending the EU some of Russia's completely unapproved Sputnik vaccine.
It's called Sputnik for a reason - to recall that world-shaking former Soviet scientific success - and Putin has been using it around the world as a similarly spectacular example of Moscow's soft power.
Macron and Merkel have just handed this tyrant a PR coup beyond his wildest dreams.
Desperate EU begs Mother Russia for help anyone?
Meanwhile millions of safe, certified British vaccines lie unused in cupboards in Paris and Berlin.
Even the most ardent Remainer must now be thinking "blimey, we might have dodged a bullet here" such is the EU's open hostility.
A few days ago Macron broadcast a stage-managed mea-culpa where he promised to do better. He said his ambition had been lacking and now admired nations which had grasped the nettle sooner, like the USA.
Not a single mention of Britain.
Covid?Can you explain why we are coming out of our second lockdown while they are going into their third?
Correct.UK still has higher death rate than France.
So why aren’t we going into a lockdown too?Covid?
