There is no legal obligation for pedestrians to do so in the UK, right? You're allowed to cross the road wherever and whenever (apart from marked exceptions and motorways), I think the only thing the highway code states you must do is not to 'loiter' on the crossing. Everything else is a strong suggestion at best.

It was ridiculous there was nobody on the crossing he was saying it to people patiently waiting on the pavement to cross.
He was cycling about 5-10 meters behind me and there was nobody crossing when I went through and when I heard his stupid siren and then shouting I turned round and there was nobody i could see near him.
Got a feeling if you carry a megaphone on your cycle to work then you are just looking for excuses to use it, I saw him about to turn onto Tooley street and instantly thought he was going to be aggro

Saw (heard) some tit with a megaphone berating pedestrians at the top of Tooley Street for not finishing their crossing while the green man was on
