A ringleader of the M25-blocking eco-group Insulate Britain does not have insulation in his own home, according to reports.

Eco-warrior Liam Norton's south-west London home is single-glazed, has no cavity wall insulation and uses gas central heating, reports the Sun.

Mr Norton, an electrician, is one of the leading figures in Insulate Britain - an Extinction Rebellion off-shoot campaigning the Government to reduce home heating emissions to zero.

The group infuriated motorists three times last week by blocking the M25 in a bid to put pressure on the Government to pay for all social housing to be fully insulated.

Mr Norton's property is owned by a housing association.  

Mr Norton told the Sun: 'This is a good example of one of Britain's leaky homes and why we need the Government to get on with the job.'

MailOnline contacted Insulate Britain for a comment, but has so far not received a response.

Mastermind behind Insulate Britain's M25 blockade vows to humiliate Boris Johnson at the UN climate conference

The mastermind of the Insulate Britain group that has blocked the M25 three times this week is vowing to humiliate Boris Johnson at the UN climate conference.

Roger Hallam is prepared for hundreds of activists to end up behind bars during the Cop26 summit in Glasgow in November.

The co-founder of Extinction Rebellion told his supporters: 'The whole world's going to be looking at Johnson and saying "You're Mr Green and you've got 200 people in prison because they want you to insulate some houses?" It's not going to look good.'

He laid out his masterplan for 'sacrifice and disruption' in a video released in July as he toured the UK looking for up to 300 activists prepared to go to jail.

'The activists will block other motorways,' he said yesterday. 'They will block roads. They will go on hunger strike. 

'They will do all the things that have happened before in British history. If the Government doesn't take a lead, then there will be massive social unrest.'

Mr Hallam set up his splinter group when he caused a rift within Extinction Rebellion over comments he made about the Holocaust.

He told a German newspaper it 'was just another f***ery in human history' – but later said the remark was taken out of context from 'three seconds' of argument.

Sources close to Mr Hallam, an organic farmer who lost his business because of severe weather, said he would 'keep escalating' his demonstrations to 'grab the headlines' from other activists.

Last week the group infuriated motorists by blocking the M25 on three separate days as part of a protest.

Members of the group sat, and some even glued themselves to the road, causing huge delays for drivers 

As many as 80 activists from the Insulate Britain group brought the motorway to a half on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, while also shutting down the M3 and M11. 

Police chiefs came under intense pressure for the way they tackled the protests and Priti Patel summoned Met Commissioner Cressida Dick and other force bosses responsible for the M25 after
