As the EU considers restricting exports of the COVID vaccines, are we in the midst of the first authentic post-Brexit row between the EU and the UK – or are Brexiters just using it as a distraction from their own failures? And who’s really to blame for the vaccine shortage? Plus, what has the Year of Living Isolatedly done to Britain’s appetite for alcohol and “miscellaneous stimulation”? What will an independent English parliament look like if (when) it happens? And, in the Extra Bit, what did we think of Russell T Davies’s AIDS drama It’s A Sin?



“Boris Johnson did far LESS than he should have. 100,000 deaths should be a resigning matter.” – Naomi Smith



“Maybe after five years of Brexit campaigning, British people really DO trust celebrities more than scientists…” – Alex Andreou



“If we create vaccine passports we’re just reserving travel for the richest countries.” – Yasmeen Serhan



“We’re entering a dangerous phase in the UK:EU relationship where each side is trying to use the other side’s failure of their own success.” – Naomi Smith
