Lord Offord of Reform UK faces backlash for an old joke, with critics calling it bad taste and possibly homophobic. Offord apologized at the time and donated to a gay rugby club. He now calls the current uproar disproportionate, as First Minister John Swinney labels him unfit for Scottish politics. Meanwhile, Reform UK deals with other candidate troubles, with four stepping down amid scrutiny. Offord insists the party polls well among LGBTQ voters and is ready to challenge the establishment in Scotland.
