I'm talking about the actual populations of countries, not governments. Public statements from politicians are worthless so Boris may well be a pariah to EU heads of government but thats as far as it goes.
You're in Luxembourg (I think?) so certainly have a better sense than me. So that's great. The closest I get is chatting with my Finnish colleagues weekly, and they certainly don't seem to be holding any ill will (although there's always been a general "British idiots!" sentiment following Brexit). I've not really probed them though.

Brexit I got loads of crap for and the UK government's response to the Covid crisis this time last year was a frequent topic of conversation. The vaccination rate in the UK is looked at as a failure of the EU to plan correctly. Not because of bitterness that the UK is stealing "our" vaccines but wondering why a government that hasn't managed a single thing correctly during this crisis still managed to do a good job in this case, the one case that will help to normalise people's lives a year after the whole shit show started.
Luxembourg played a blinder this time last year (could test the entire population approx every 30-35 days) but now have the 4th lowest vaccination rate in the EU with numerous scandals around queue jumping for connected individuals.
