Vectoring at Gatwick

Can a controller please remind me why it's not feasible, possible to hold in stacks and then proceed for the procedure rather than being vectored for the approach at Gatwick.

Also re Gatwick, I thought a couple of years ago by an NTC the phraseology was changed to Cleared for the Approach rather than descend on the glide once established on the LOC!

Thanks

Whilst we are at it, what is the definition of "Good Rate" when climbing. Why not specify a rate therefore you know straight away if its possible to achieve said rate.

Thanks Again.
