BBC Radio 2 or Magic on 105.4 are the two stations I tend to listen to in this area, and they both give out traffic reports. Not quite so frequent at weekends though.

I used to travel down the M6 from the North west quite frequently, branching off for the M40 and then anti-clockwise around the M25 ie away from the Dartford tunnel and found this generally to be quicker and less congested than clockwise.

Occasionally I would cut across country earlier and pick up the A50 or the A5 over to the A1/M1 and this used to work a treat too.

Bear in mind that at the end of November the toll booths at Dartford will become redundant. This may speed travel through/over the crossing but may encourage more people to take that route due to the lack of perceived congestion at the crossing.

I tend to go for whichever route is shortest. Congestion cannot be predicted unless and until you have heard the traffic reports. I used to use various parts of the M25 when I was working, as I used to travel the country extensively. In my opinion, one of the worst sections for congestion was between junctions 18 and 13 anti-clockwise. Dartford could also be bad, and so could the junction of the M25/M26, but which is worse at any given time is impossible to say. From the M40 I would probably go anti-clockwise, but from the M11, A10, A1M, or M1, I would go via Dartford. It all depends on where you join the northern section.

Me I would use M6, not using the Toll, M42 M40 then anti clock M25, long term roadworks on the M1 from where you join at the M6 all the way to J16
