It’s more like if anyone doesn’t know who they are, and they don’t know what they are talking about, and anyone doesn’t know who doesn’t know what or who they are talking about, it’s likely that what they’re talking about, or to whom, might not make sense.
Does that make it clearer?

Popped down a major international hub this morning for some exercise and a bit of a chat because I'm missing work a tiny bit and guess what they're all chatting about, the prospect of moving firms because of the thousands on offer for signing up with different companies, I'm all for the workers, always have been but if this comes to pass it seems desperate to me rather than some sort of levelling up exercise

EU vaccine rollout row flares after French official brags about Ireland ‘surpassing’ UK
First France’s EU Commissioner takes aim, then Irish Taoiseach Micheal Martin has a dig at Britain
|
Quote:
The EU's row with the UK over the rollout of Covid vaccines has been reignited after a senior official bragged about Ireland "surpassing" the UK on the number of double-jabbed adults.
Thierry Breton, France's EU Commissioner, tweeted to celebrate the success of Ireland's rollout, saying EU factories "keep supplying vaccines to the world".
He posted: "More than 70 per cent of Irish adults are now fully vaccinated, surpassing the UK (73 per cent vs 72 per cent).
|
Quote:
|
Commenting on Mr Breton's comments, Nadim Zahawi, the vaccines minister, said the efforts were not a "race", adding: "We want to help vaccinate the whole world.

Re: Britain outside the EU
I would have thought . . nay, expected . . that any willy waving performance in the public eye would, should, be followed up by immediate arrest and court appearance under some kind of obscene act law.
. . . or is it different for virtual signaling?

No. Rees-Mogg was reacting to the EU.

So it was a pre-emptive strike from Rees-Mogg as he knew that Ireland was going to overtake the UK in roll-outs and that Thierry Breton would brag about it? It appears that I've under-estimated the man's skills.

Look, I've proved many times over that the EU is the UK's enemy to the extent that if they can punish the UK for Brexit they will.
Enemies need to be treated accordingly.

EDIT: Didn't we donate nearly 4 million vaccine doses to Ireland earlier this year? Makes the bragging very distasteful and certainly most perfidious.
