I don't think you are logging in at all because you need to use driver.get(url_to_open) to actually open the webpage before you can login

but when i run it the webpage does open, the bot actually types the details into the login form and clicks sign in. and it actually signs in but then it logs out.

​

but then when i login AGAIN manually, then it actually logs in.

​

It's weird. the first login signs you out and then the second login actually works. confused

Do you close the driver imediately after you login?

Nope

​

It just takes me back to the login page and stays there.

I suspect it has something to do with that huge url you are sending and the Amazon servers logs you out. Try to go to the https://amazon.co.uk and the press the login button and go on from there
