"IF" you filed a VFR plan, then "Only" London/Associated FIR/s and "Destination" Aerodrome
will be notified.

The "Low Level Route" is an "relatively" easy path transiting the Manchester/Liverpool complex.
You were "refused crossing of the CTR" join the club
. Sorry, BUT 85%
have to be vectored away.
I was in the tower at that time yesterday, and we were rather busy, on 06 as it happens, so the "Overhead" would have affected 30+ flights arriving
and departing.
that is "precicely" why we have a Low Level Route
BTW, you could have asked Liverpool for a Zone Transit.
we aim to please, it keeps the cleaners happy
posted after radar etc, still have "truths" though
