Adam Ingram MP

Adam Ingram, this corrupt and former Orange Order member, and Labour MP, was the British Minister of State for the Armed Forces from 2001 to 2007. Following a lost libel case against Penguin books, and in the wake of the "MP's Expenses" scandal he decided to stand down as an MP, and focus full time on his real interest - making money - as a "consultant and advisor" to the international arms industry with Adam Ingram Advisory Limited.

As Minister of State for the Armed Forces, Adam Ingram consistently lied to the British Parliament by denying that the British military used torture on Iraqi and Afghan prisoners. He further claimed that the International Red Cross had verified that torture was not used by British troops in Iraq, when in fact IRC and Amnesty International had raised their concerns about torture, and he had refused the IRC access to the prisoners.

Prior to his resignation, and at the height of the MP's Expenses scandal, letters in support of him were sent to his local newspaper - these turned out to be fake, and written by members of his own family.
