Channel Islands Class A

Purely out of curiousity, I've no axe to grind here, I'm wordering what the reason is for the Channel Islands having such a large area of Class A airspace.

Could this really be the busyist piece of airspace in the UK???? Or is it more to do with politics, and history, and their close proximity to France?

Or is it simply because they asked for it, and no one objected?

Or is it something to do with these islands being seperate states from the UK, and deciding they only wanted one class of airspace?

Just curious.
