Also, it wouldn't have been possible for devolved admins to furlough workers unilaterally within the UK system.
Remember when Wales needed to impose a firebreak but Sunak had already removed the furlough scheme, and refused to reinstate it until England needed its own additional lockdown?

They should reveal that it's actually loads of Bond siblings, all with the middle name "James" doing a jobshare. The dead Daniel Craig one was the Roger Moore one's brother. Would explain the different appearances and personalities, and they can do a spinoff where they all spend Xmas together.

Yep, sounds like they're taking the P out of him. "A million robotaxies eh, what're you like! Tell you what son, if you do that, we'll pay you, like, a trillion dollars, haha"

That's insane - from a UK perspective I just can't take it in. My kids' mum is on dialysis three times a week: all completely free, all prescriptions/meds free too (in Wales) and they even transport her to the hospital for free.
