As AS6 in those NOTAM I feel able to answer your question. I know that these V series NOTAM are irrelevant to many operators in the UK (particularly GA) but the information has to be available to UK operators who may fly into/over/close to those areas. Unfortunately, the NATS AIS system does not enable pilots to filter out certain NOTAM series (in this case the V series which is also used for Volcanic Ash warnings). We are working on alternative methods of retaining the long-term warnings in the appropriate, but alternative, domain.

In the meantime when using the NATS AIS site for your narrow route brief just skim past the NOTAM that are annotated Vn the right hand column. I hope to bring news of developments in the near future as we progress.
