Would it not be easier to have the same rule as in the USA, where they

turn right on a red signal?
So we should be able to turn LEFT at a RED light.
Of course the pedestrians and other cars on the green, have priority.
This would save time, reduce pollution (whilst waiting) and get traffic
moving, instead of sitting idle.
What does London say ?
Whilst we at it can we have flashing Amber traffic lights meaning give way
on traffic lights that are not as important during late evening
and early morning?
Like they do in Italy
How many times have you sat at a red light and nothing has passed through
before the light has gone green again?
also switch off pelican crossings after say 00.30 as people
have a habit of pressing the button as the pass them not intending to
cross
If enough drivers just start turning left through red lights anyway the
police aren't going to take any notice and it will become normal.
Ok, you go first !!!! ;-)
