Ben Spencer MP: money and interests
4 Jul 2025–3 Jul 2026
How these years work
Our reporting years run from 4 July to 3 July, starting with the 2024 general election. They are not official parliamentary sessions. Office costs keep IPSA’s April–March financial years. Records may cover only part of a year; a missing record does not mean no work was done.
Jobs, earnings, gifts and other interests reported by this MP. This list uses the recorded registration date, or publication date when no registration date is supplied, within the selected period. It is not a total of personal income or a complete year-end register.

Donations and support
Reported donations dated 4 Jul 2025–3 Jul 2026 with a unique recipient match to this MP.
What this shows and doesn't show
Electoral Commission donation records, including in-kind support, for the displayed period. A party or accounting-unit donation is not assigned to an MP without a recipient match, and reported support does not establish personal income, influence or wrongdoing. Methodology.
Identity matching and excluded recipients
Concentration calculation and source groups
Donor groups are sorted by reported value solely for this calculation. Name-only groups are not confirmed identities.

View as listWhat this shows and doesn't show
Widths compare the non-negative values of the displayed subset only. The flow connects the reported donor and recipient directly; an accounting unit is a recipient label, not evidence of an onward transfer. Methodology.
No uniquely matched donation records in this period.
