"Drivers need to leave enough space for cyclists when they overtake them or face a £100 fine. The Highway Code states there should be 4ft 11in (1.5 metres) between the car and cyclist - around the width of a car door."

I didn't realise the Daily Wail was a legal reference book. Would you
care to point out where in the 2019 edition of the Highway code a
requirement to allow 1.5m exists?
