I've had this fairly often. Drivers' rationale appears to be that because they have managed to squeeze past and get in front of you, it is now your responsibility to keep out of their way.
Mostly deal with it by taking a good primary position, sometimes switching to ride on the outside line (ie middle of road) or if it's all too messed up, just slowing down and waiting for the to gtfo.

Coming off Waterloo roundabout (from E&C) on to Stamford Street, as I'm turning off black cab overtakes, then slows down for the corner and takes a racing line on the corner, effectively pushing me into the curb. I started to hit his body work to let him know he's too close and he then pulls up and says "couldn't you see me? Am I not allowed to use the corner etc etc". I'm well aware that I should be the one staying safe b/c I'm not in a big metal box (I'm starting to sound like my mother). Is this his problem for passing then slowing and pulling in? Or should I be slowing up every time a driver passes me?
