VFR doing an ILS approach

Hello,

I'm sure this has been asked before but I can't find anything about it anywhere.

Is it possible for a pilot flying VFR with an IMC rating to enter controlled airspace (say Stansted CTR)
via a VRP and be given vectors for an ILS approach? The pilot has to refuse the vectors if it will take him into IMC even if he has the rating because he is in a CTR, correct? If this is allowed would that aircraft then become IFR or can he remain as VFR under a RCS?

Regarding a similar topic, it is also possible for aircraft to be vectored for an ILS approach OCAS under a RIS, is that true?

From what I understand the above is allowed but today I was told different and I have to be sure.


Thanks,
CoC
