Piltdown Man-Not that any of us at scottish are the sensitive types but if your initial post had been a reasonable question rather than a patronising dig that implied that we were providing you with a sh!t service then you would have got some friendlier replies
Take a leaf out of dutchbird 757's book. Ask a reasonable question and reasonable answer will be forthcoming.

And here it is-We have an early left turn procedure from EGPF runway23 that allows us to turn you once you pass 4000ft or GOW5dme,whichever is the later.The point you are normally routed to is LAKEY, which is the boundary of Scottish and London airspace when you route UN615 to the south.
The EGPH DCS SIDs take you so far west to avoid the EGPF inbound traffic routeing towards the LANAK hold from the south and south east. Any left turn for any traffic on the DCS departures from EGPH requires co-ordination with at least one other sector,so if it's busy then I'm afraid the direct routes are not available off EGPH
