Cyclists allowed to run red lights?

Some Lycra loon tried to run down somebody I know who works in the City
a few years ago. The Lycra loon came off worst in the encounter, despite
thinking at the time that he was big enough and hard enough to
intimidate a man in a suit.
I think it's about time that pedestrians claimed our space back from
these louts. I had one of them shouting at me on Sunday as he tried to
ride me down on the pavement in Camden. He got very ****ed off when I
weaved to block his path but ended up having to get off the pavement and
into the road where he belonged.
We did however have to do through the phases of "tinkle tinkle", "Oy Get
Out Of My Way!" and "**** OFF OUT OF THE ****ING WAY" before the penny
dropped that I didn't give a toss about how loud he shouted. How do the
******* cope with the deaf, do they just ride them down regardless?
A cyclist in the City, you need to ask?
