And yes, I do care. I, and the vast majority of my colleagues care about providing the best service to all airspace users within the bounds of UK procedures and regulatory expectations
Wow. That's really good to hear. Thanks!

I look forward to working with you when I fly over London, VFR on a great sunny day, at say 7,000-9,000 feet in future. I also look forward to crossing over Heathrow Airport, just as I do at other airports that are similar if not busier.

As the forum rules say, don't feed the trolls....
I am just trying to challenge anyone who think us 'clockwork mice' are dangerous or do nothing but interrupt airliners and therefore should be better kept out of airspace.

The accident rates deduced in the figures above are largely irrelevant to the discussion, unless such accidents are ATC-related.
Only fraction of these are ATC related. Which means we remain considerably safer than the UK on a per flight hour basis.
