The councillor resigned from the UUP last week after describing its election candidate selection process as 'absolute madness'

A councillor who quit the Ulster Unionist Party over its "completely chaotic" plans for May's local government elections has joined the DUP.

In a statement issued by the DUP, Mr McClean said: "I have worked closely with DUP colleagues over the years on council and am delighted to have joined the party."The case for the Union is overwhelming and support for the Union remains consistently strong, but we must strive to ensure the broadest possible support is realised.

The DUP leader added: "I want to build a stronger and more cohesive unionism, and there is a warm welcome within the party for anyone who wants to build a better Northern Ireland within the United Kingdom. It comes a week after a TUV candidate in last year's Stormont Assembly election was appointed as a DUP councillor.

Mr Doran quit the TUV in October, telling the party he was focusing on university and would be moving to England.
