This is demonstrably untrue. In early/mid 2020, *every single* remainer in politics demanded the UK sign up to the EU's vaccine scheme, they melodramatically made out it was a national disaster if we didn't. If we hadn't have left the EU, they'd still be in charge and we would unequivocally have signed up to it like every other EU country did. Our lucky escape from the EU's vaccine calamity was entirely because of Brexit.

The point wasn’t to sign up instead of doing our own thing
It was to sign up *as well as* doing our own thing.

smoke screen!! nothing to do with brexit tho is it??
the same contract could have been signed with AZ whether the uk was in the EU or not. Just like we had the option to join the EU with other PPE options - brexit or not. we didn't on that and failed to get any reasonable amount of PPE! that's one of many many many failures of Bojo, the vaccine roll out and procurement was one of the very few successes
Brexit in my opinion has not produce one single benefit, except if you want a united Ireland and an independent Scotland
if I'm wrong please let me know
