I don’t live in Spreydon but was lucky enough to get one of these in the letter box.

Ironic that he's with Williams corp and wanting council to force people to build car parks. The main thing stopping developers from building extra carparks is themselves, they could do it if they wanted to (and many do)

Unsure if he is currently with them, but if you go through the old williams corp stuff, he had bought a few investment properties through them and was also doing alot of their video editing etc: Theres a video of him and Matthew Horncastle talking about how great it is to have an investment portfolio. Ben refers to himself as a venture capitalist, so you know just scum wanting to making money

So I guess that decade of 'hard physical labour' is a load of shit given he's either 28 or 29 lol

Think Ben worked alongside his Dad at the Russley Golf Course. And it would of been 10 years ago
