I like it when the Sgt said they have canvassed residents, I think residents are more worried about dog shit in Holland Park then cyclists RLJ

You'd be surprised how often this topic comes up in Community Advisory Panel meetings, where, as the sergeant said, Safer Neighbourhood Teams have their priorities set. Never mind whether this is a priority or not in your view--go along to those meetings, discuss it with other local residents and try to influence what they ask the police to spend their time on. The police are definitely not making excuses in this case, but they could certainly make their work more positive and explain to cyclists more about what they're doing--e.g. lowering the status of cycling. This may not concern individual cyclists who think that their speed is the only thing that counts and who don't understand traffic, but it perpetuates popular stereotypes and hampers more take-up of cycling among people who would rather not take up something that they perceive as lawless and done by people like whom they don't want to be.
