It made sense to restrict Covid vaccines to the NHS when supply was restricted. Now no such issues, those who want additional protection (maybe due to frequent international travel for example) should be able to pay for it privately (just like every other vaccine).

We have a PM elected in exactly the same way as always. In our Parliamentary democracy we elect one MP per constituency; the Monarch then invites the Leader of the party best placed to command a majority in HoC to form a govt. We don’t elect PMs. But you know all this don’t you!

MPs get that the

in No.11 “would be a powerful double act that would reassure the markets”.
‘It was clear on several occasions that Liz Truss didn't know what she was talking about...particularly on economic matters'.
