A 2024 24-hr census gave 265,700 private cars, 139,400 cyclists, 70,000 commercial vehicles.

7am-7pm, cycles were the bigger group with 39% vs private cars at 22%. Most commuters to the City walk in from railway stations, with cyclists the next largest group. Hence the dedicated cycle unit.

So 0.002% of cyclists get a fine every day even though there is a dedicated unit watching them. That sounds like they are behaving quite well.

Those were only the ones they were able to catch. It happens a lot more than that.

Anyway, the statement they were debunking was that it never happened.
