Bored of Remainers piously opining about how their own opponents, or even people who don’t see the world exactly as they do, ie where the EU is always assumed to be sober & correct, are bovine fools slavishly addicted to motivated reasoning. Get a mirror.

I voted Remain. I was so sure it was right thing it caused serious & painful family rifts. I still believe membership of EU is economically best deal we’ll get *BUT* EU have of late showed some Leaver critiques of political union to be correct. I am no longer 100% certain.

EU failure on vaccines cannot be brushed aside as minor errors. ‘Mere’ weeks of delay represent many thousands of lives lost. Those playing that down are as in the grip of the most motivated of reasoning, if only they could but see.

Vaccines have altered the calculation. It’s daft to deny that. Degree to which they have done so is far from clear. It may end up not being substantial financially or it may. But those lives have value. Real value. If you can’t admit that you’re everything you sneer at others for
