One of my colleagues got called a W@nk*r on the R/T the other day by a Doncaster inbound because he wouldn't give it a direct to the FNY because it would take it outside controlled airspace and we could all see that there was a lot of military out there. I think it was a Thompson.
Not the same "Thompson's" continually requesting a higher descent profile than published at NEDUL inbound to EGHH/EGHI?
