Because that would cost a fortune, and when the house is sold
at auction a few years later, the new owner finds that rainwater
has got behind the insulation and caused all manner of damage,
and rips it all off. Seen it on Homes under the Hammer.

This would make the relocated gas pipes look a bit silly.

Seen may characterful terraced houses in the Liverpool area
with nice corbelled brickwork, aesthetically ruined with this
subsidised nonsense.

Stick the insulation INSIDE FFS.
