Gatwick arrivals

Why do the approach controllers for LGW seem intent on funnelling as many arrivals as they can over the towns of West Kent? It would be quite easy just to move the flow a few miles west rather than over 60000 people.
The UK AIP states that aircraft should fly a CDA but the details disappeared from the UKAIP years ago, and the commercial chart providers do not publsh this information ,hence a lot of operators do not bother.
