The UK’s biggest crowdfunding platform Crowdfunder has shut down the climate activist group Just Stop Oil’s account, saying “it no longer complied with its terms of use” after a series of acts of vandalism.

On Friday, Just Stop Oil’s Crowdfunder ended, saying said that it had raised over £78,000 with 535 supporters in 242 days.
