London climb Rates

A question please to controllers in the London area.

Coming out of biz jet airports in the London area (Luton, Cambridge, Biggin etc) is it easier for you folks if we climb like the clappers or would you prefer we keep things a bit more benign.

In our company there are differing opinions. One camp are of the opinion to climb quickly in order for us to get to a level which will help you get us out of the area. The other camp however is concerned about possibly RA's by climbing too fast and stick to 1,500 - 2,000 ft/min.

As controllers do you have a preference?
