I had an online discussion last week on another forum with someone who had voted for Brexit because he was worried about left-wing facism. I vehemently held the position that the very concept was fabricated by the right wing press.
Reading the last few pages here I’m seriously reconsidering that position.
Sorry, I keep coming back to this - it's a truly remarkable take. Honestly, it's a thing of beauty.
Dammit-
The misspelling of fascism?
Jokes aside do you not see a tendency on here for leftwing arguments to be put forward in a shouty and abusive way when they're up against an opposing voice?... and judging by other parts of the internet its fairly moderate here.
For eg if you think on balance the world has benefited from modern capitalist policies, but we need some social safety nets you're either a centrist dad or a tory cunt, depending on the mood or size of the safety net you think is sensible.
In this case given that the troll was clearly a troll, I'm still struggling to see why people bothered to reply in the first place. But if they were why get so aggressive about it?

Sanofi (a private company, not UK.gov) are stockpiling, which answers the question. It seems to be relatively easy to increase the size of the stockpile. Either way, a solution of sorts exists (whether you are satisfied or not with it). But a stream of personal ad hominem attacks based on fear of something that the poster was seeking to discuss is not ok in a mature, respectful discussion, and will never change anything. Like it or not you’re part of the problem if you can’t see this.
