Motes excuses at his webpage

Quote from the webpage of Ashley Mote (bureau member ITS Group):
"Owing to unforeseen circumstances there will be a short intermission in my trouble-making in the European Parliament on behalf of the constituents of South-East England.
Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible, hopefully early in the new year."

Mote is in Winchester prison for nine months. That is why he can not attend meetings in the European Parliament. But the information about his whereabouts right now is not - of some reason - mentioned at his website.
