Who they are
Webb’s campaign biography describes a background in hospitality and business, his role presenting Channel 4’s Risking It All, and nine years volunteering with Sussex Police as a special constable. The campaign also describes his involvement with Regency Radio in Lancing. These are campaign accounts of his experience, rather than independent verification of each achievement.
