United Kingdom is experiencing a Flight Data Processing System failure.
Scottish and London FIRs are regulated at low rates with very high individual delays.
Currently there is no indication of when a solution for the failure will be available so no improvements for flights entering UK airspace are forseen in the near future.
Further information will be published when available.

Yes, but flights will continue to destination if they're already airborne. Others won't be able to depart. Shouldn't it thin out over the next few hours?

Here in Jersey we are starting to see transatlantic westbound routing over us, which don’t usually come this way. So far, there have been at least 4 KLM EHAM departures overhead plus a Brussels A/L Washington flight. This almost never happens, even when NAT tracks are a bit southerly. Also apparent are German transatlantic, although this is fairly common with southerly tracks. Looks like we’ll see a lot of different a/c this afternoon & evening. Although, “see” is not quite accurate - as it is quite cloudy at the moment.
