I know the guy and wouldn't invite him to a BBQ but he won a lot of business that saw a lot of investment in operations that kept a lot of people in work.

If you want to slate his character then fine, but lets keep the perspective that there are people who have jobs and can support their families as a result of what that man achieved for his team.
