Look like the sensible thing would be to remove the island as it is
causing confusion.

I don't think that there is necessarily anything wrong with the
crossing - more as I said the kid had not been taught to use it
properly.
I suggest he had not been told that if he was caught on the island he
needed to press the button to change the lights again and he should
not continue crossing once his "permission" light had gone out.
Hardly the motorist's fault.
- but hey - lets's give a motorist a bashing.

"Primary position" the middle of a traffic lane. To take the "primary position" : to ride a bike in the middle of the lane in order to obstruct other road vehicles from overtaking.
A term invented by and used by psycholists and not recognised in the Highway Code.
Highway Code Rule 168 : "Never obstruct drivers who wish to pass."
