Episode Details

Former Ulster Unionist leader Doug Beattie has resigned from the party, citing an “insidious element” undermining him and a growing alienation from leadership under Jon Burrows. After years of service as an MLA for Upper Bann, Beattie claims he was targeted through rumors, ignored concerns, and faced a disciplinary reopening over old social media posts — all part of a campaign to force his exit. Though the party acknowledges his resignation and thanks him for his service, they dispute his account, saying a pre-agreed process was in place — now overtaken by his departure.
