Help with bike

Hello I'm bit noob when it comes to road bikes and need some help. For the last 8 months been commuting to work (25 km daily mainly roads) on Scott Aspect 620 which is MTB, too slow too heavy not really suitable.

I'm considering to buy road bike (flat bar) with a budget between £800 - £1200 max and here I got a list of bike I'm interested in:

Giant Rapid 0 2017 - £799 best value for money ?
Giant Fast Road SLR 2017 - £799
Cube SL Road SL 2017 - £1150
Cannondale Quick Carbon 2 Flat Bar 2017 - £1040
Merida Speeder 400 2017 - £950
Specialized Sirrus Comp City 2017 Hybrid Bike £1000

love Giant CoMax 1 2017 but it's not available in UK

Could anyone help ... please, any recommendations would be appreciated.

Many thanks.

You won't get much assistance on here for recommendations for a flat bar bike I'm afraid. Best to post in the commuter forum. Someone will be along in a minute to tell you to get drop bars because of the number of hand positions available etc. If all you are doing is a 25km commute they any bar would do but if you want to get more into cycling for "pleasure" then I would suggest widening your search a bit.
