1) Like #BorisJohnson, #NigelAdams is corrupt to the bone. He is a bankrolled shill for Drax, the UK's biggest carbon emitter, located in his former constituency. He has been integral to ensuring that £billions from our energy bills are pocketed by the climate villain🧵

2) GREENWASHING! Between 2012 and 2016, Drax donated more than £60,000 to Nigel Adams, whilst he lobbied the government to divert onshore wind subsidies towards corporations who burn trees for electricity (biomass). This emits more carbon per unit of energy that any fossil fuel.

3) 🤑🤑The donations include £30,000 for luxury travel and hotels in the states to attend a series of conferences 🤔

4) As chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Biomass, Adams has been at the forefront of efforts to publicly fund Drax's dirty tree burning.

5) 💰Recently, Nigel Adams has continued to push to secure £billions more tax payer funder subsidies for Drax for BECCS (Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage), a non existent technology which has never been proven by any real world trials.
