What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Scottish Greens have called on the Scottish Conservatives to disclose donations from individuals with financial interests in major hyperscale data centre projects. This demand follows an investigation that found the Conservative Party treasurer and donor Graham Edwards is linked to CX Tech, the company behind the £16.5 billion Chapelcross data centre.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The call for transparency comes after the Scottish Conservatives refused to support a call in the Scottish Parliament for a moratorium on new hyperscale data centre applications. The Greens argue that the money received from people with direct financial interests in these controversial proposals requires full disclosure.
