Gail Bradbrook, the co-founder of Extinction Rebellion, has been unanimously found guilty of criminal damage to the Department for Transport (DfT) building in 2019. Bradbrook was accused of causing £27,500 in damage after breaking a large pane of reinforced security glass at the DfT’s headquarters. She stated that she specifically targeted the DfT due to environmental concerns related to the HS2 project. The trial faced delays and legal wrangles, and Bradbrook argued that her actions were legally necessary and intended to prevent a greater crime of climate destruction. She is set to be sentenced on December 18. Judge Martin Edmunds KC ruled that her arguments did not constitute valid legal defenses that a jury could consider. The case is part of a broader legal battle over protest rights.
