As far as I'm aware Heathrow still has MLS.
It certainly did last winter, since my Airbus colleagues were using it on occasions.

From what I saw it's use didn't always lead to the improvement in flow rates that we were promised - whether that's down to other operators not being MLS approved, and/or ATC restrictions I do not know. I'm sure someone will be along with chapter and verse later in the day.
