She lived in a tent outside Parliament for six years, and now veteran peace campaigner Maria Gallastegui has taken up residence in the trees at Highbury Corner.
They had claimed squatters rights to the trees four months ago in a bid to prevent them from being chopped down to make way for a block of flats.
The protesters were ordered to vacate the site off Canonbury Road by February 1, but have heard bailiffs are not due to turn up until February 8 and remain in situ.
