EU - "Well you're supplying Britain?"

AZ - "Yes but they ordered 5 months ago and helped build the farm. We can give you what we've got, maybe 30"

EU- "But we didn't know if it worked 5 months ago"

AZ - "Neither did the UK but they had faith in their science and invested money on behalf of the world"

EU - "Well I'll sue you then...and tell everyone your turkeys are poisonous"

Later that day...

EU - "Sorry about that, your turkeys are fine but now no one wants your turkey. However even though we've got 7 spare at home, we still demand the 90 turkeys, oh and by the way this isn't our fault"
