And it says upfront costs of 336 million euro plus an undisclosed amount for fill and packaging on 300 million doses . Which is in line with the UK Ā£65 million for 100 million doses and the US's $1 billon for one billion doses.
I am not sure why folk in the UK are getting in such a tizzy about an argument between the EU commission and a pharmaceutical company over a supply contract in the EU?
Because A they want doses allocated to us and B they put a border up in IrelandAnd it says upfront costs of 336 million euro plus an undisclosed amount for fill and packaging on 300 million doses .

Fen tennis variant. Seemed a quick and appropriate response to Bobk. Wasn't really thinking of the finer points of the rules.

They are not at all.
What they are doing is using a cock up by the Eu to give it a kicking.

Never change balls here. Always the same old balls.
Europe!?
Did you see the program about Delorean? Running off with shed loads of uk taxpayers money meant for Belfast. More disappointingly, the Lotus guy, (Colin Chapman?) bent as, and would of been charged if he wasnāt dead by that time. I always rather liked him
De Lorean first approached the ROI government with his plans. After much negotiation, the ROI pulled out because the then industry minister Des OāMalley saw right through him. OāMalley figured him glib, suave and too good to be true!

From my limited experience of international trade the corruption league table was
1. USA particularly good at buying Saudi princes.
2. Germany
3. Switzerland - money laundering mostly
4. Netherlands
5. Belgium
6. France
7. Russia and Eastern Bloc. Nobody wanted their kit anyway so bribery didnāt make any difference.
we usually had to pay ācommissionā to Dutch agents totalling 5% of contract value so they made more profit out of the order than we did. It stank. But that was the way of it. Upset Mr Van Dyke and he would make sure youād never get another order from king Rolla Rolla again.

Ha ha ha. Probably.
And the joy of Britain, is everyone is whiter than white. Best in the world moral and ethical standards. Absolutely no chance in hell, of day to day connections of people in power getting lucrative contracts from the state. Gosh no. That would never happen.
