Richard Holden, one of the 6 Music supporters who attended the protest, said: “It was packed. It was mostly middle-aged, middle-class people – there was never going to be any trouble whatsoever.

Three 30-minute Oxford Mail surveys in the city showed cyclists routinely ignoring red signals at junctions.

At the Botley Road junction with Frideswide Square, 15 out of 67 cyclists approaching red lights ignored them. At the crossroads near the Sheldonian Theatre in Broad Street, 48 out of 112 cyclists jumped red lights.

The High Street junction with Longwall Street saw 39 out of 88 cyclists ignore stop signals.
