Too little too late...the horse has already bolted me thinks.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak promised to toughen up migration rules under a Tory leadership contest deal with Suella Braverman, the former home secretary's allies say.
The Telegraph newspaper says it has seen a copy of a plan Mr Sunak agreed with Mrs Braverman last year.
The document includes a pledge to increase the salary migrants would have to earn to enter the UK.
But Mr Sunak's allies dispute the idea he struck a deal with Mrs Braverman.
Sources close to the prime minister insist there was a more general policy discussion about legal and illegal migration, rather than an agreement on specific policy proposals.
The claim of a deal came in Mrs Braverman's scathing letter to Mr Sunak after the prime minister had sacked her as home secretary.
In the letter, Mrs Braverman said she supported Mr Sunak's Tory leadership bid last year because of "the firm assurances you gave me on key policy priorities", which included reducing "overall legal migration".
