Party whip withdrawn from Lord Maginnis over homophobic remarks.
The leader of Ulster Unionist Party has withdrawn the party whip from Lord Maginnis over his homophobic remarks.
Mike Nesbitt held a meeting with the former MP, and now a cross-party peer, after the latter described homosexuality as ‘unnatural and deviant,’ and a ‘rung on the ladder to bestiality.’
