Two days in a row I've been riding in primary and got tailgated - yesterday it was by a bus on Waterloo bridge, when he had loads of room to move right and overtake, but he came alongside me and pointed out the tiny crappy cycle lane to me. Took it zen though, cos it's a bus and you're supposed to give way to them anyway. Today was a white van speeding towards a red light on Albion Rd/Newington Green, with definitely not enough space to overtake safely. Dickheads. Weather was nice though

Yes, but that does not mean the same as "be subservient and allow them to drive not in accordance with the highway code". They still have to overtake you legally.
