London MM Investment Bank Rankings

What's the current rankings for MM firms in London; understand some strong performing American MMs have a completely different scene in the UK with some much more recently established. What would a tier list of Blair, Baird, Harris Williams, Piper Sandler, Lincoln, Stifel, Raymond James, Stephens, Cowen, DC Advisory, Arma, Canacord, Cantor and Houlihan Lokey etc look like in London? Not looking for people to say why Roths/ Jefferies/RBC / (insert bank they hate) are a MM and not a EB/large independent.

HL dominating by far!! (current deal flow)
Roths, Evercore (more on upper side), Jefferies

Arma
DC, Raymond James, William Blair
Harris Williams (doing quite well recently), Lincoln (volume shop more than others imo)

Others

People can disagree on exact ranking but this is roughly correct in terms of reputation, deal flow and exits.
