Their apology is worth exactly the paper it's printed on, interesting.
Well.. if the paper is worth what it says on it, then it's about 18 billion pound sterling in total for all the 50 notes printed.
I'm glad he's on money but something more often seen would have been better. Although with inflation the 50 might be the new 20
I did not know they did this although to be honest I can't remember the last time I saw a bank of England note never mind a 50
