Almost always bandboxed and cross coupled at the moment as the weather is not great and the staffing precludes splitting the freqs.

At least with Class C you will not have to separate the VFR-VFR's just traffic info and avoidance on request.
Problem with the UK VMC criteria below 3000ft in controlled airspace though.
Helicopters could fly VFR in worse conditions than they can SVFR if I remember correctly.
One thing that this discussion has highlighted for me is the lack of understanding of the IFR and how flights can be operated IFR but below the SSA or MSA or Radar vectoring Altitude when visual.
