Insulate Britain declares M25 ‘site of non-violent civil resistance’

Climate group makes declaration after transport secretary obtains injunction

Insulate Britain has declared the M25 a site of non-violent civil resistance" and called for motorists to keep to 20mph on the motorway or avoid it altogether, after a new injunction banned the group from major roads across England.

It comes after Grant Shapps, the transport secretary, announced that England's roads agency, National Highways, had obtained an injunction banning the group from protesting across England's entire strategic road network".
