It's not a perfect campaign, but would you rather wait until the perfect campaign appears (which is likely to be never, as there will always be people disagreeing with something in any campaign made) or to have this and hope that something may come out of it. . For me, I think this is a great step forward!
As for cycle lanes being dangerous, I hear what you're saying - but this is down to the drivers making them dangerous for not being aware. Look at Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Berlin, Stockholm etc where they have cycle lanes and motorised vehicles knows to look out for cyclists in cycle lanes. It's not the lanes that are dangerous - it's the drivers not looking (but I'm sure that's what you meant anyway).
