Website Ben Bradley

Benjamin David Bradley (born December 1989 in Ripley, Derbyshire) is a British Conservative Party politician. He has been the Member of Parliament (MP) for Mansfield since the 2017 general election, where he unseated the long-standing Labour Party incumbent Alan Meale, and despite the acting Returning Officer wrongly announcing Meale as the victor.

Prior to election Bradley was office manager for Mark Spencer, MP for nearby Sherwood constituency also in Nottinghamshire. He has worked as a landscape gardener and bar man.

He was educated at Derby Grammar School. After briefly attending the University of Bath and the University of Salford, he graduated from Nottingham Trent University in 2013.

He lives in Hucknall where he was the Hucknall North ward councillor on Ashfield District Council between 2015 and 2017. Bradley stepped down in September, and an October by-election returned an Independent to the vacant seat. He remains a Nottinghamshire county councillor for the Hucknall North seat, which he won in May 2017, a month earlier than the general election.
