Tom Cridland, who has been designing sustainable fashion since 2015, was so disgusted by Insulate Britain’s recent protests, he’s created a range of clothing boasting the slogan: ‘F*ck Insulate Britain’.

For £69, you can be the proud owner of a sustainable jab at the climate change protest group.

For nearly five weeks, Insulate Britain have wreaked havoc on Britain’s roads.

One woman was filmed on Monday begging to be let through the Blackwall tunnel to meet her mother who had been rushed to Canterbury hospital. Another has been left partially paralysed after protests on the M25 delayed her trip to hospital by six hours.

On Friday morning, Insulate Britain caused further disruption in East London after activists glued themselves to Old Street roundabout.

Nineteen protestors have since been arrested.

The group vow to continue blocking motorways and other busy roads around London until the government agree to insulate all homes in Britain.

Speaking on LBC on Friday morning, Transport Secretary Grant Shapps condemned the group’s action, saying “it’s dangerous, it’s really outrageous, and actually, ironically, it probably adds to pollution as cars idle.”

On Wednesday, Prime Minister Boris Johnson, branded the group “irresponsible crusties”.

Cridland, whose Earth-friendly chinos have been seen on celebrities like Daniel Craig and Leonardo DiCaprio, said he is “passionate about anything he can do to combat the acceleration of climate change.”

Except shut down Britain’s motorways in protest, clearly. 

Cridland is particularly furious at Insulate Britain’s spokesperson, Liam Norton. 

Last month, it was revealed on Good Morning Britain that Norton hadn’t got round to insulating his own home yet. 

“If he can’t afford it” said Cridland, “why doesn’t he borrow money to pay for it? If home insulation really is the deciding factor in terms of the potential immediate end of the human race”
