I ask once again: would the Welsh Government make a statement condemning the appalling behaviour of Ursula von der Leyen and the European Commission in the handling of the vaccine roll-out in Europe? As well as threats to block the exports of vaccines to the UK, her obfuscation and u-turn strategies have undoubtedly cost many thousands of lives across the European Union. And further, would the Government make a statement on the incredible way in which both the Welsh and UK Governments, freed of EU intervention, have handled the vaccine roll-out in the UK, and by so doing saved many thousands of British lives? Surely this in itself is a justification for Brexit.
