Who are Insulate Britain?

They are climate campaigners who, according to their website, have two demands:

1 — That the UK government immediately promises to fully fund and take responsibility for the insulation of all social housing in Britain by 2025;

2 — That the UK government immediately promises to produce within four months a legally binding national plan to fully fund and take responsibility for the full low-energy and low-carbon whole-house retrofit , with no externalised costs, of all homes in Britain by 2030 as part of a just transition to full decarbonisation of all parts of society and the economy.
