The Telegraph published this video item, entitled “Europe ‘sniffy’ about ‘British success’ on Covid vaccine, says Jacob Rees-Mogg” – below is their description.
Jacob Rees-Mogg has accused the European regulator of being “a bit sniffy” about the “huge British success” in approving a Covid vaccine first.
The European Medicines Agency yesterday claimed its procedure was more appropriate as it required more evidence and checks than the emergency procedure chosen by Britain. It will decide by December 29.
But Mr Rees-Mogg today told MPs: “The UK should be really proud that our regulator got in first and we notice that the European regulator is a bit sniffy about it, wishes we hadn’t done it, and that Germany and France and other European countries haven’t managed to do the same thing.
“We have, we’re leading, draw your own conclusions, as I’m sure the British public will,” he added. “We are now free of the dead hand of the European Union and will be even more free from that on January 1.”
