“The reason we have the vaccine success is because of capitalism, because of greed my friends.”

It'll be old news by the morning, another massive gaffe swept under the rugs during the breakfast tv interviews by bumbling idiots with flags and portraits of the Queen taking away the attention.

 

[Ex Footy Legs]

You did

You know it was boris yesterday

Hundred room to back a horse like Boris makes you unforgivably stupid

 

[BoroFur]

Back to the 'greed is good' mantra of Thatcher's 80s.

Laura K manages to give Johnson an easy ride however and laughs it off as a joke.

'Greed' and 'capitalism' helped UK's vaccines success, says PM

But Boris Johnson immediately retracts the comments made during a Zoom meeting with Tory MPs.

Who are the communists/ex-communists in the EU?

The UK is fast becoming a pariah state.

Saw that. The new chair of the BBC, who has donated over 400k to the Tories, has wasted no time in ensuring the BBC’s impartiality. More of this to come.

It's hardly a shock is it, we paid more than any other country in the world for the vaccines we received, surely that's how capitalism works???

Secondly the fact that the buffoon said it on a Zoom call will just add to his charm and personality with the general public I'm afarid.

It's a sleight on the people who helped developed the vaccine in the UK. A group of people from research and public health bodies came together for altruism not capitalism and greed.

If you think the EU is a communist institution you're completely off your trolley.

Absolutely this.

Who aren't. Angel Merkel being number 1. (She would like to be known as a number so a hidden compliment there)

100% with you there

but theres a big difference between R and D and production and distribution. Th research people have very little to do with the latter

Well when the EU seeks to control the means of production that's a cornerstone of Marxist ideology

For Astrazeneca there isn't. Developed by altruists, vaccinated by the NHS and pharmacies through the NHS and the vaccine supplied at cost by the manufacturer.

It's a sleight on all concerned.
