Not sure where in central London you can do 20mph, nothing but roadworks, building work, bike and bus lanes.

Does anyone actually bother with the 20 limit in Brighton?

Not from my experience

I do. Although it's hard not to go over.

I don't have a problem with it, especially on less open road. The traffic may well flow better. Adds 5 minutes max to a five mile journey.

I read somewhere that a car engine running at 20 MPH produces nearly twice as much pollution as one traveling at 30 MPH.
I wonder if it's true?
If so the tree huggers will have a field day (If you'll pardon the expression)
