The Oxford Astrazeneca Vaccine is sold at cost as a non profit maker...at the moment,about £3.50 a go,others are up to
10 times that Mate....
Dont usually put Newspaper links up,but this one is pretty bang on.

I'll hold my hands up to that mate..Well done to them.It is jointly own by a Swedish company,who probably had a massive say in the price.

But let`s not forget the other contracts handed out in this pandemic MK.
The value of Covid related Government contracts must be approaching £20 Billion by now and if anyone thinks that no one within the halls of power is getting their palms greased, then naivety must be their specialist subject.

Mate not trying to prove you wrong that wasn't my intent.......you're right in the fact some people have made shitloads outta
this thing...
And AstraZeneca shares are on the up.....but thats a win/win,cos lots of pension funds are linked to and have shares
in the pharma industries......funny old fuckin thing financial world,confuses the shit outta me.... :lol:
No,that`s fine MK..If I am proved wrong,I will always hold my hands up to it.No problem mate.

I was gonna say, before I got to the bottom of it, it started before this. Debenhams before Christmas and we’ll before that we had Thomson or Thomas cook or someone like that amongst others. Carphone warehouse was another but there was a big hint of that going before the pandemic anyway

Simply the trend of on-line purchasing. Enough people have decided they would prefer to point and click with a mouse at an image, rather than visit a store and look at a product and touch with their hands.

Or Gap are crap and people have moved past the brand

I really hate being able to try clothes on to see if they fit me before buying them.

I'd much prefer buying stuff online, finding out it doesn't fit and then have to fuck about sending it back.
