http://www.author.co.uk/tanner/index.htm - Tanner publishing web site - the useful links section includes the BNP but not the UKIP. Tanner publishing only seems to have published two books and was done by Amolibros which looks like vanity publishing. Secretlondon 15:38, 2 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Sure they belong in the article, he wrote them. The site says "Amolibros is not a vanity publisher - it is a consultancy designed to help you publish your own book", whether that's worth anything. Such operations are different from 'vanity presses' per se ... sometimes. Amolibrios promo sheet. There is an unrelated Tanner Publishing in Canada. You can buy the book through the Conservative Party shop [1].

I can't quickly find any other evidence Mote was ever BNP.

[edit] Question

May I ask what "had the party whip removed" means in the UK? --Deville 02:30, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

they removed his party membership by not following the lines. See the new link in the article. Mion 03:02, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I guessed it meant something like that, but I wasn't sure, and my feeling is that a lot of readers won't. Much better now! --Deville 03:46, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "nine charges of false accounting and one of making a false representation."

Was he charged or let off as innocent in the end? Would be interesting to know.

On 4 September 2007, he was found guilty on charges of falsely claiming benefit of £65,000 ($130,000). The court found him guilty of eight charges of false accounting, eight of obtaining a money transfer by deception, four of evading liability and one of failing to notify a change of circumstances.

He was sentenced to 9 months in jail. As the sentence is less than 12 months, he does not have to relinquish his seat in the European Parliament. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.74.168.195 (talk) 15:27, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
