ROE for supersonic flight over UK mainland

I saw it reported in the news today that at least 2 Typhoons (in a pair of 2 ships) went supersonic over the mainland during a QRA scramble to intercept a commercial aircraft that was out of position without comms - or something like that.

Made me wonder if any F3, Phantom, or Lightning drivers ever remember getting the green light to do the same and under what circumstances ?
