Stuart Wheeler, who contested the Sussex constituency of Bexhill and Battle, is a businessman who donated £5 million to the Conservatives in 2001. He was expelled from the Conservative Party for donating £100,000 to United Kingdom Independence Party in 2009.[4] Wheeler claimed that his opponent in Bexhill and Battle, Gregory Barker MP, escaped criticism from David Cameron over his expenses as an ally of the Conservative Party leader.[5] Barker called Wheeler's campaign "an attempt to cash in on genuine public concerns about the Parliamentary expenses scandal by peddling the most extraordinary untruths about my own Parliamentary claims and expenditure."[5] The party's other candidate was Douglas Taylor. Taylor had been Conservative candidate at the Western Isles in 2001, and in Perth and North Perthshire in 2005.[6] Taylor stood again on the Trust Party ticket in Perth and North Perthshire.

One set of accounts was submitted to the Electoral Commission noting that the party had no members and no cash or fixed assets, having been financed by private donations, the balance of which had been repaid to the donors. The accounts noted that the party "won little support in the constituencies and decided not to continue".[11] In January 2011 Wheeler joined the United Kingdom Independence Party as treasurer.[12] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://registers.electoralcommission.org.uk/regulatory-issues/regpoliticalparties.cfm?frmGB=1&frmPartyID=986&frmType=partydetail|title=Register of political parties - Trust|publisher=The Electoral Commission|accessdate=30 March 2010|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100403113700/http://registers.electoralcommission.org.uk/regulatory-issues/regpoliticalparties.cfm?frmGB=1&frmPartyID=986&frmType=partydetail|archivedate=3 April 2010|df=}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://thetrustparty.co.uk/trust.php|title=About Trust|publisher=Trust|accessdate=30 March 2010|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100401101405/http://thetrustparty.co.uk/trust.php|archivedate=1 April 2010|df=}} 3. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1261283/5m-Tory-donor-stand-Election--Cameron-ally.html|title=£5m Tory donor will stand in Election... against Cameron ally|date=28 March 2010|publisher=Daily Mail|accessdate=30 March 2010}} 4. ^{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/8593669.stm|title=Ex-Tory donor launches Trust Party on expenses pledge|date=29 March 2010|publisher=BBC News|accessdate=30 March 2010}} 5. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.ryeandbattleobserver.co.uk/bexhill-news/Barker-slams-rival-campaign-as.6230699.jp|title=Barker slams rival campaign as "unfounded smears"|date=15 April 2010|work=Rye & Battle Observer|accessdate=28 April 2010}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://thetrustparty.co.uk/candidates.php|title=Selected Candidates|publisher=Trust|accessdate=30 March 2010|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100402014400/http://thetrustparty.co.uk/candidates.php|archivedate=2 April 2010|df=}} 7. ^BBC - Election 2010 - Bexhill & Battle 8. ^BBC - Election 2010 - Perth & Perthshire North 9. ^1 {{cite news|url=http://www.yourcanterbury.co.uk/kent-news/Tycoon_s-new-party-aims-to-win-Trust-of-the-voters-newsinkent34523.aspx|title=Tycoon's new party aims to win Trust of the voters|date=4 April 2010|work=Your Canterbury|accessdate=28 April 2010}} 10. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.hastingsobserver.co.uk/newsrbo/New-Party-leader-squares-up.6199352.jp|title=New Party leader squares up to MP Barker|last=Jarrett|first=Nigel|date=1 April 2010|work=Hastings Observer|accessdate=28 April 2010}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/party-finance/database-of-registers/statements-of-accounts/soa/pdfs/soa_25-05-11_10-15-17.pdf|title=The Trust Party - Statement of Accounts|year=2011|publisher=Electoral Commission|accessdate=7 June 2011}}{{Dead link|date=July 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=no }} 12. ^{{cite web| url = http://www.ukip.org/content/latest-news/2075-wheeler-joins-ukip-as-treasurer| title = Latest News - Wheeler joins UKIP as Treasurer| accessdate = 28 January 2011| deadurl = yes| archiveurl = https://archive.is/20130416040842/http://www.ukip.org/content/latest-news/2075-wheeler-joins-ukip-as-treasurer| archivedate = 16 April 2013| df = }} External links
