Politically, that may prove a tad unpopular.
It won't happen anyway, currently the largest growth in many areas is amongst kids, and its not approved for them anyway, and the people needing protection most are the over 70's and most vulnerable (as well as health workers), so that will continue to be the target.
 
EU approved the Pfizer jab makes supply have to spread a bit thinner.
The quantities the EU agreed with Pfizer will have been agreed at the outset of the EU procurement exercise. Likewise our contract for Pfizer has been in place for months. I doubt Pfizer will prioritise a buyer that is paying one third of the U.K. price if they meant not meeting our contract with them.
 
Then I’ll be a ****, we did cardiac arrests for two years for nothing, not even a thank you nevermind a pay rise, we’ve done stuff through this pandemic to help out with a handclap and fuck you from the government, they take the piss, so excuse me if I don’t put myself at risk for when I don’t need to. The public don’t give a shit about us just look at the comments over teachers and nurses, come crawling when they need us or the military but once its over it’s back to greedy public sector, gold plated pensions etc.
That's the spirit.

Manufacturing issues mean there is only 50% of the expected supply available would guess they will have to pro rata.

Quite.
There are about 25 million of 50 or over, plus the vulnerable who are younger.

By the time they try something more nuanced by geography, they should have reached 80-90% of those in the main target area. At that point, as long as there aren't shortages in any region, they should just get on with it.
