Infringements of the Heathrow CTR

Well folks, yesterday there were an unbelievable FIVE infringements of the LHR CTR, one of which tracked from White Waltham, eastwards towards Heathrow, straight into their departures. At least two of the others (either intentionally or not) cut the northwest corner south of Beaconsfield.

Was there a huge solar flare that played havoc with compasses, or were these folks just lacking awareness? I know we are all human, but still find it difficult to understand how folks can get it so wrong at times.....how can we all prevent this kind of occurrence repeating itself week after week?
