    When you brexit so hard you start believing you’re still a maritime superpower

    The AstraZeneca vaccine was, at the time, at the heart of a cross-Channel row over exports, and Johnson believed the EU was treating the UK “with malice”.

    Ohh no brexit function as intended, how can EU treat us as another country other than a partner

    Johnson said that he “had commissioned some work on whether it might be technically feasible to launch an aquatic raid on a warehouse in Leiden, in the Netherlands, and to take that which was legally ours and which the UK desperately needed”.

    So people can just launch raid party at government warehouse if the government withhold their item for whatever reason? It’s legally theirs right?

    Idk, people said he intentionally make himself looks like a buffoon, i think it fit a buffoon.

    That would have gone to shit incredibly quickly. Would have been interpreted as a criminal gang attempting to steal a massive stock of vaccine.
