Climate activists buy environment secretary’s Cornwall constituency office

Insulate Britain supporters donate rent from George Eustice's office towards protesters' court costs

The constituency office of the environment secretary, George Eustice, has been bought by supporters of Insulate Britain, who have donated his rent to a legal fund for activists.

Supporters of the group, which made headlines last year by obstructing major roads and calling on the government to retrofit all British homes to make them energy efficient, formed a coalition of investors.
