golden rule of cycling is you do not pass any sort of vehicle on the

All very nice in theory, until the poor judgement, stupidity, mistake
or incompetence of another road user puts them in that situation. Or
the HGV chooses to stop alongside them and then decides to turn left.
Or the HGV pulls out in front of them. Etc etc.

(Having said that the standard of cycling in London is not good, but
is still much better than that of most drivers).
