Full statement
Ben is an environmental scientist working in remediation having worked to clean up Birmingham’s canals and currently works removing pollution from former gas works.
His interests are focussed on helping people solve housing issues and directly combatting the poor state of rental housing. He works with Unite and Acorn community unions to bring about change through solidarity and direct action.
“I am very policy oriented and am standing to become the Green MP for Sutton Coldfield because our policies are the only ones which take our critical climate condition seriously.
