Euro MP is kicked out of Tory party
YORKSHIRE Tory Euro MP Edward McMillan Scott has been kicked out of the party after a row over alliances in the European Parliament.
Mr McMillan-Scott has been at odds with his party over its decision to align itself with a breakaway alliance in the European Parliament.
Mr McMillan-Scott said its leader Michael Kaminski had once belonged to the far-right National Revival of Poland organisation.
The Yorkshire and Humber MEP had the Conservative whip withdrawn in July when he defied David Cameron and stood for vice-president of the Parliament.
Mr McMillan-Scott said he had been making arrangements to have the whip restored.
“They knew that and despite that they threw me out.”
