According to the FAA's latest regulations published in June, every commercial drone needs its own remote operator, the operator needs to maintain a visual line of sight with the drone at all times, and the drone cannot fly over people who are not involved in its operation. These rules seem to make Amazon's drone delivery project a non-starter in the U.S. for now. Perhaps the UK has more lenient regulations.
