What has that got to do with anything?
The criticism is about current, recent past, and near future supply. The EU scheme is merely theoretical as it hasn't yet produced anything physical. Even if we had joined whatever the scheme is meant to be, it wouldn't have improved the current, recent past, or near future supply situation.
If anything, it PROVES we shouldn't have joined the scheme, as it couldn't be relied upon to provide anything. We would be idly waiting for whatever the EU sent our way, rather being able to make our own arrangements.
A bit like waiting for a supermarket delivery, when you're(not personally) perfectly able to go to the shops yourselves, and then complaining when they don't have certain items in stock, and haven't made sensible replacements and so are short on what you expected.
