Conservative MP Pauline Latham said not only should the government end the "massive renewable subsidies they pay to biomass companies" by 2027, but "further subsidies should not be granted beyond this date in the form of subsidies to BECCS".


"These companies should not be using billpayer money to burn wood from other countries' forests," she told Sky News.
