I think at Gatwick this would be classed as: 'a completely unnecessary go-around'. But each operator and controller has their own limits, so you cannot overly criticise someone for going around.
Agreed. Someone just want to have a dig at aviators who do not claim to be skygods.

I lost count of the number times when I was at less than 200ft above the threshold when some other aircraft just cross the runway centerline, especially at EGLL and PHNL on good visiblility day time operations. I only went around at around 150ft AGL once at PHNL RW 08L when the JAL aircraft took ages to cross at RB...RB is just too close to the threshold!
