		Mosley was at this time falling out with the Conservatives over the issue of Irish policy, and the use of the Black and Tans to suppress the Irish population.
		Mosley continued to organise marches policed by the flshirts, and the government was sufficiently concerned to pass the Public Order Act 1936 which banned political uniforms.
		Diana Mosley was also interned, shortly after the birth of their son Max, and they lived together for most of the war in a house in the grounds of Holloway prison.

	Oswald Mosley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Mosley was a noted philanderer and had numerous affairs including, during his first marriage, with his wife's sister Lady Alexandra Metcalfe, as well as her stepmother, Grace Curzon, Marchioness Curzon of Kedleston, the American-born widow of Lord Curzon of Kedleston.
		The Papers of Oswald Moseley are housed at the University of Birmingham Special Collections.

	Oswald Mosley Reconsidered
		Oswald Mosley's strange, spectacular, and absolutely unique career within the broad polity of an entrenched liberal-democratic society of our time touched, in its long course, on virtually every great public issue and theme that faced and still faces such a society in this age of continuing turmoil and change.
		Mosley is being revised -- and the revisionist process truly to be such need only amount to a gradual reconsideration of his ideas and proposals simply on their merits.
		For Mosley, surveying the course of Britain and Europe since the Second World War, there could only be regret that the cause to which he had sacrificed his career, and which had promised a far, far different future for his nation, its continent and culture, had not succeeded.

	British Union of Fascists - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The government was sufficiently concerned, however, to pass the Public Order Act of 1936, which banned the wearing of political uniforms during marches, required police consent for political marches to go ahead, and effectively destroyed the movement.
		The BUF was completely banned in May 1940, and Mosley and 740 other senior fascists were interned for much of World War II.
		Mosley made several unsuccessful attempts at a political comeback after the war, most notably in the Union Movement.

	GrandPrix.com > GP Encyclopedia > People > Max Mosley
		The second son of politician Sir Oswald Mosley and Diana Mitford, Mosley spent his childhood in Ireland before being sent to school in France and later at Stein an der Traun in Germany.
		Mosley became increasingly involved in the activities of FOCA and after March withdrew from F1 at the end of 1977 Mosley quit March and became the legal advisor to FOCA and a member of the FISA F1 Commission.
		Mosley announced that he would resign after a year so that he could be judged on his merits and 12 months later he was re-elected for a four-year term.

	Oswald Mosley
		After the war ended, Mosley decided to enter politics and in 1918 he was elected as a Conservative to the Harrow seat, largely on the strength of his family's name.
		During the Conservative majority government Mosley was close with former Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald, and when MacDonald was again named Prime Minister with the Labour victory in the general election of 1929 Mosley expected an important appointment but, having already alienated people with his notorious arrogance, he was excluded from the cabinet.
		The release of Sir Oswald and Lady Mosley is a slap in the face of anti-fascists in every country and a direct betrayal of those who have died for the cause of anti- fascism.

	[No title]
		Mosley's British Union Of Fascists was the first political party in Britain in 1949 to call for a European Union.
		Mosley edited a magazine, "The European", between 1953 and 1959, which called for a "Union of Europe", proclaiming himself leader of the Union Movement which campaigned for "Europe a Nation".
		Sir Oswald continued to promote the Nazi vision of a world divided up into self-sufficient, autarkic, blocs which would be corporatist in character, which would deny the existence of class struggle.

	Oswald Mosley and Diana: civil liberties - briefing document
		British establishment interference with civil liberties during the 20th century—the example of Diana and Oswald Mosley is one of a series of documents analysing dysfunctional social, or group, behaviour in modern society.
		The Mosleys were placed with other internees in a ‘house’ that, according to the Mosleys’ eldest son, was more like a deserted cotton mill.
		Incidentally, the Mosleys were probably eventually released because of fears Mosley might die in prison and become a martyr.

	Commentary Magazine - My Life, by Oswald Mosley (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		...In all this the Mosley of the 1930 resignation and even the Mosley of the New Party, which attracted many men of genuine idealism, is not all that difficult to imagine in the contemporary clothes of present-day political protest...
		...For Mosley himself-like many of the 30's Communists-was an example of a man whose ideals were corrupted by the means chosen to pursue them: a justified sense of disillusion with the "system" having been transformed into a millenarian belief in the need for some form of mystic regeneration of society...
		...Seemingly Mosley has never been able to resist the temptation to exploit-if only tacitly-prejudices which he himself does not share: contemptuous in his book about the myth of the "Jewish conspiracy," he appears to have been unable to persuade his naive followers of the 30's of the mistaken nature of their vulgar, crude antiSemitism...

		In the same year Mosley - along with 800 other leading Blackshirts - was interned in Holloway prison under regulation 18b, the hastily created and widely criticised law that permitted the arrest of potential enemies of the state.
		With the advent of peace and the defeat of nazism, Mosley’s Germanic brand of fascism was discredited and he began to turn toward a new stance and another prime example of his predilection for turning about his opinions.
		The glorious incongruity of Mosley’s life is that he could have been whatever he chose but in the end failed to become anything at all.

		The mass of Mosley's men had not been involved in the fighting except for a small number who were early arrivals at the meeting place where they were met by hundreds of Reds armed with a variety of weapons, and we were to arrive in the thick of it.
		Mosley and Director General Francis-Hawkins attended as guests and it was a very proud moment when Oswald Mosley made the after dinner announcement.

	Oswald Mosley in Scotland with a Short History of the Blackshirts
		When Mosley launched his 'New Party,' the precursor of the British Union of Fascists, it was active in Scotland virtually from the outset.
		The red scum were not prepared to allow Mosley's popularity to continue to spread in the face of their campaign of lies and hatred.
		Mosley and over 750 of his "boys" were thrown into prison cells previously deemed as unfit for the worst criminals, and then into concentration camps at Ascot and on the Isle of Man. Many were ex-servicemen who had already proved their loyalty to their country in the bloody fields of Flanders.

	Sir Oswald Mosley -- Briton, Fascist, European
		If Mosley's struggle for peace ended in 1939, if indeed he was then the "brilliant failure" of the obituary notices, he did not have to run the gauntlet of those fifty million unnecessary dead when his time came to leave this earth and face another verdict beyond.
		Mosley's concept of Europe thus went much further than the present "European Community" and was a direct contrast with it, replacing the national jealousies and economic rivalry of today's "common market" with an essential harmony.
		Mosley was deeply concerned with this question in his Labour days, being much impressed with Lloyd George's inner cabinet of five men with wide powers which had won the First World War, and in his Memorandum proposed a "machinery of government" to modernize industry and solve unemployment.

		Although she never took part in a Mosley march or spoke on a public platform, her contribution to the campaign to prevent the decline of our country was enormous.
		After the War, Lady Mosley used her formidable skills as a writer to produce ‘The European’: the Union Movement magazine that soon gathered around it a growing number of first-class intellectuals interested in Mosley’s concept of ‘Europe a Nation’.

	Counter-Culture Review : BETRAYAL - OSWALD MOSLEY
		They have produced a thoughtful and balanced account of Mosley`s career, focusing in particular on his interrogation by Norman Birkett in 1940 (Birkett was a distinguished barrister commissioned by Churchill to find sufficient evidence with which to imprison Mosley, his wife and some 700 of his followers).
		Mosley believed that war against Germany in 1939 was not in Britain`s best interests but he urged his followers to support the war effort.
		The Mosleys retired to a life of luxury in Paris after 1945 (an attempted political comeback on an anti-immigration platform in the late 1950s was a pathetic throwback) and lost the respect of many of their former followers who had sacrificed so much for the cause.

	The Social Affairs Unit - Web Review: Can a new biography of Mosley explain how a Labour politician concerned with ...
		Sir Oswald Mosley was probably the most famous British politician of the twentieth century whose party never held a single seat in Parliament.
		Mosley was recently voted, in a poll in BBC History, as one of the most evil men in British history, along with Jack the Ripper and assorted Medieval psychopaths, yet he arguably never hurt anyone in his life, and in many respects remained a model English gentleman until his dying day.
		Mosley's first wife, Lady Cynthia Curzon, was the granddaughter of a Chicago meatpacking millionaire named Levi Leiter, and was also widely believed to have been of Jewish descent, although it seems that her American ancestors were "Aryan" Mennonites.

		Diana Mosley's life changed from that of glamorous society hostess to one of notoriety as wife of the founder of the British Union of Fascists, the Blackshirts.
		But in 1932 she met Oswald Mosley, an encounter which was to change her life, taking her from the glamour of London society to a prison cell.
		In 1977 Lady Mosley wrote her autobiography, A Life of Contrasts, and in 1981 a slim biography of her neighbour in Paris, the Duchess of Windsor.

	S Y N T H E S I S - Oswald Mosley: The Rise & Fall of English Fascism Between 1918-45
		In 1918 Mosley became the Conservative Party MP for Harrow, although he was first and foremost a staunch Unionist and “rarely, if ever, described himself as a Conservative.”[11] Indeed, by 1920 he had left the Party with many people speculating that he was gravitating towards Labour.
		Although Mosley was renowned for his flirtation with several of the existing Establishment parties, when he initially entered the domain of Fascist politics he was in possession of one or two very strong ideological principles (although policy-making decisions were gradually left to others as time wore on).
		But despite Mosley’s charismatic leadership and his ability to win recruits for the BUF by capitalising upon the issue of Jewish power and securing the short-term financial support of Lord Rothermere, English Fascism was eventually destroyed by its own ideological and strategic contradictions.

		And as Mosley's narrator moves through the possibilities of half-truths, lies, conspiracies, and betrayals, he himself creates a parallel crisis in his personal life wherein he and his wife are trying to destroy their marriage or save it, or--as we come to expect in Mosley novels--do both at once.
		Mosley's style of writing is unique, and his ability to shape and mold a novel like a clay work in progress is remarkable.
		Mosley is also the author of several nonfiction works, most notably his autobiography Efforts at Truth, and a biography of his father, Sir Oswald Mosley, entitled Rules of the Game/Beyond the Pale.

		Suddenly, as Sir Oswald was speaking during a lull in the interruptions - so placed were the amplifiers that those in the seats reserved for the press could not distinguish his words - a pamphlet fluttered down from the blue gauze-covered roof.
		After ten o'clock it was plainly a struggle between Sir Oswald and the decision of the licensing justices of the borough of Hammersmith.
