Turning left in car with cyclist behind you

Isambard

Position your car, after indicating, so they cannot pass on the inside. If they are rapidly catching your car, then it's best to leave them go. Other wise, I'd take command of the lane as stated
If they are in a cycle lane, then it changes things of course. If they are obviously not going to give way to an indicating car, then in this instance, I think a car would have to give way for safety's sake. They are quite vulnerable.

Apply Darwin's Law in the absence of any road legislation being applied.

Cycle lane is immaterial. If you are ahead - and I mean far enough to not cut in in a dangerous fashion - move left to the kerb. They slow down or if they wish to continue at a faster speed, change lane and overtake on your right.

They are a road vehicle like you, pure and simple and treat them as such.
Give them room, indicate and turn left.
They don't "own" the lane, so if you have road position, they accommodate you.

you can't move to the kerb if the cycle lane has a solid line.
