Class G blues

I know that you are all going to say that I'm only whingeing but as I am now a regular visitor to the South-West of England in my shiny new Q400 (with landing lights on at all times below FL100). I would be interested to know if someone from CAA-SRG or Airspace policy would like to accompany us as a look-out against parachuting aircraft, military transiters, non-radio gliders in the holding pattern and every farmer with a PPL who inhabit the skies at very close quarters to an airport whose passenger figures have practically doubled in numbers since April 1st. ATC do their very best. But sectors could be a lot less hassle without having a very limited RIS (because a RAS will add-on another thirty track-miles), numerous advisory heading changes, RSI from constantly monitoring the TCAS and overhead joins practically every-day. Am I alone with this view? And any ideas if an airfield in the SW has applied for Class D?
