Nationalism? The Astrazeneca vaccines was paid for by the UK 3 months before the EU.
Not 3 weeks, 3 months.
The same production problems with the EU batch happened to the UK one, as far as I know, but they had time to fix it because of those extra 3 months.
Now the EU want to jump the queue and give it out "evenly", because it suits them. And if the shoe was on the other foot, they'd be saying 'je suis desolé, we have no vaccine for you British because of Brexit'. And you know it.
Plus they've been talking down the British strategy so much now their own citizens are wasting what Astrazeneca supplies they do have, so it'd be a complete waste.
