I just got my second Astrazeneca jab.

Fuck me, this country knows how to mobilise.
Got a text from the surgery two days ago and picked a spot at 2.30 today.
Up at the Royal Free in Hampstead this afternoon they've converted the doctor's basketball court into a mass vaccination unit with lovely volunteers, retired doctors and admin staff. Everything running like clockwork and hundreds of people, black, white and every colour in between getting their jabs. So impressive.
I've read so many times how this country is NEVER ready for a coming conflict, from Napoleon to Hitler (hell even those damn French would have got battered by Harold if he hadn't had to batter the Vikings 300 miles away then march his troops to Dover for another go) but our ability to mobilise and our distribution system must be the envy of the world.
One very proud Englishman here today.

Army sorting it all like the foot and mouth years ago.
Recall that colonel making a statement at the start of the jabs it was like going into battle.

Glad to hear it chim - I might get my first jab sometime next fortnight and everyone is dropping like flies round here. This lot are fucking pathetic though they have just managed over 200,000 jabs in a day for the first time.

Excellent.
The worst thing about the Royal Free is the diabolical parking!

Probably a dose that Usula-la was adamant belonged to her,
As a collateral benefit you've now probably murdered 6 Frenchmen, 4 Germans, a Spaniard, a Greek, a Pole and some unidentified, shady looking swarthy bloke waiting on the beach at Calais for his dingy to arrive.

Having said that, with the UK’s per capita Covid death rate so high, there was really no other option.

It is working because finally the government left this for the NHS to organise locally and they have done a bloody good job so far.

Yes.
Has anyone else noticed how the government’s recovery and return to actual policy somehow coincided with the departure of the Blind Gargoyle of Barnard Castle aka “Sir” Dominic Cummings?
Wonder how his revolution is going now.

Are you suggesting the BGBC was suffering from fuck-up fatigue?

Someone doesn't understand Cummings' involvement in the formation of the vaccine taskforce do they?
No surprise as you're a foreign man living in a foreign country, why would you know?
Go and do some reading up, Thickle.

Tell us more O’Coneson.
How is this “vaccine task force” active now?
It all seems very under-cover, cloak and dagger.

Mr Cummings added: "In spring 2020 you had a situation where the Department of Health was just a smoking ruin in terms of procurement and PPE and all of that.
"You had serious problems with the funding bureaucracy for therapeutics, that was the kind of context for it.
"Patrick Vallance (the government's chief scientific adviser) then came to Number 10 and says 'this shouldn't be run out of the Department for Health, we should create a separate taskforce'.
"We also had the EU proposal which looked like an absolute guaranteed programme to fail debacle.
"Therefore Patrick Vallance, the cabinet secretary, me, and some others said 'obviously we should take this out of the Department of Health, obviously we should create a separate taskforce and obviously we have to empower that taskforce directly with the authority of the prime minister'."

Devastating.
Did he organise the Falklands task force as well? The UK was subjugated by the EU at the time so perhaps not.
