Some of the countries which have been worse hit by the coronavirus are members of the European Union. But there has been no joint European Union action against the virus; infact member states have acted alone taking measures in the national interest.

The UKwill have hopefully learned a lot from our mistakes in this pandemic. Unfortunately I do not think the EU will as it obviously split and no leadership. Bet they cannot wait for it to be over then all the EU members can get back on the gravy train. Yes Brexit will be back on the agenda but thankfully after this EU shambles ,we,the U.K. will tell the EU what,how and when we are to do things. Which country will be the first to break away?
@Rosemary 👏🏻👏🏻 I would add another of the editor’s favourites “You would have thought”...!
This man puts no thought whatsoever into his editorials. I have noticed that of late the articles have been posted in the late afternoon, perhaps to limit the amount of adverse comment that they deserve.
Rosemary well said , it’s the same when you see all the supposedly well educated STARTING A SENTENCE WITH SO
As a self-fulfilling bureaucracy, the EU has been found out for what it is!
Please stop starting your sentences with “Now”. Thank you.
Jason, very poorly written article, you have not done much homework. Each country has its own responsibility and vision about how to deal with the crisis. I.e. Sweden took a totally different route as most countries and some countries were much less affected than others, i.e. Greece. The true role of the EU will start after this Covid-19 crisis, when countries will try and rebuild their economies. The EU recently launched an initial 500 billion euro rescue plan. And this is only a first stepThe EU is nothing more or less than the heads of states want it to be in the end. It is not a federal government like the USA.
