The lights changed to let them cross, and from nowhere some chunt on a mountain bike zooms through the red, brushing past them, closely followed by a bus. I shouted "are you fucking blind, it's fucking RED" - I think the peds appreciated the sentiment if not the actual words...
I wish I'd taken note of the reg plate of the bus but that's another story.
Haven't looked into this, but I'm pretty sure buses no longer have to stop at red (if it's a pedestrian crossing) or take notice of box junctions.
It must be in a revised version of the highway code somewhere.
