More on UKIP - a former MEP joins a far-right political party

12.16.03pm GMT Thu 11th Jan 2007

A former UKIP MEP is set to join a new group in the European Parliament which includes some of Europe's most prominent far-right political parties. Ashley Mote, elected as a UKIP MEP for the South East of England but sitting as an Independent MEP since 2004, will join the "Identity, Tradition and Sovereignty" group.

Does this tell you something about those elected for UKIP in 2004 and perhaps some of its existing membership?
