The figures are not a count of who has been offered the jab.
The current state (taken direct from the NHS site).

Who can get a COVID-19 vaccine
People aged 18 and over (or turning 18 within 3 months) can get a 1st and 2nd dose of a vaccine.
Most children and young people aged 12 to 17 are currently only being offered a 1st dose.

Just so you are clear, that's every adult, and children over 11, offered the 'jab'.
So unless you advocate forced vaccination, the UK appears to have done all it can.

Christ man, with the media throwing it at us for the last year I think everyone should have got the message by now, what should we do next . . offer people £1000 to get a jab?

One venue in Austria* has an unconventional inducement for vaccinations.

I like the way you're thinking. We spent more than that for every person in the UK on furlough, and £500 per person on Test & Trace. Which is the best value?

Re: Coronavirus
Notice the Operation Rampdown stuff has been leaked to the media. I do think we ultimately need to draw a line under covid and treat it like other cold/flu type viruses, when it has reached that severity as an illness. We don't isolate people with colds, though arguably it is better they do, and T&T seems to be less useful now people don't have to isolate if double jabbed, and now you don't have to check into venues etc. So it makes sense that ultimately this style operation is mothballed, the only thing is the timing, it should be when covid is more or less over, whether that is sooner or later.
Seems that the Netherlands and Austria are now taking measures which we probably won't see here - keeping some measures on in the summer rather than actually getting some immunity built up is probably not going to help Europe where it might do so more here, but we'll see that over the next few weeks. And there probably isn't much support for lockdowns these days in most places.
Let's not forget a lot of the EU countries didn't increase the dose gap between jabs - and have kept things like masks, vaxpasses, which we don't have.

That is a great graph, because the argument has really moved on to age, and at what is the benefit of vaccination to kids. Your graph sums it up perfectly.
Cheers.
