The group have been known to take their protests to motorways across the UK, blocking motorists from driving through. According to a recent statement, the group would "suspend its campaign of civil resistance" until October 25.

       In a statement to the Prime Minister, the group wrote: "Insulate Britain would like to take this opportunity to profoundly acknowledge the disruption caused over the past five weeks.

       "We cannot imagine undertaking such acts in normal circumstances.

       "But the dire reality of our situation has to be faced."

       After explaining that the group would not be taking any further action until the COP26 Summit, the group urged the Prime Minister: "We want you to make a meaningful statement that we can trust, a statement the country wants to hear: that your government will live up to its responsibilities to protect us."

       It is expected that the ringleader of the group Liam Norton will deliver the letter to Downing Street this afternoon.

       Professor of Psychological Sciences Mark McDermott spoke to GB News presenters Simon McCoy and Kirsty Gallacher recently about why the group were putting themselves at risk.

       He said: “They weren’t doing this to get kicks. This rebellion is coming from a sense of disaffection.

       “A sense of there being an unreasonable set of requirements surrounding them, perhaps to be passive and to do nothing in the face of inaction, as they perceive it to be.”

       "The problem with this is, Mark, and we all saw the pictures yesterday as we’ve seen pictures before; someone’s going to get hurt.

       “Someone’s going to die. And it won’t be one of these protesters. And it won’t be one of these protesters that ends up in prison.

       "It'll be someone who’s been trying to remove them because they’re trying to get their kid to a hospital or something like that.”

       He continued: "And this is where people get really cross with them.”

       The protesters had been met with anger over the past few months for their protesting methods.

       The group had taken the decision to block motorways on September 13 of this year.

       Since then, the group have blocked five junctions on the M25 motorway, as well as a number of other motorways across the country.
