Have there been any examples in which (extremely) unparliamentary language was not withdrawn and so has led to some other, more serious consequences?

Naming (parliamentary procedure)

Naming is a procedure in some Westminster parliaments that provides for the speaker to temporarily remove a member of parliament who is breaking the rules of conduct of the legislature. Historically, "naming" refers to the speaker's invocation of the process by calling out the actual name of the member, breaking the convention of calling on members by the name of their constituency.

 

Processes to name a member are present in the lower houses of the British, Australian, Canadian, and New Zealand parliaments, and the legislatures of some Australian states and Canadian provinces. The implementation of the procedure varies by parliament, but usually requires the speaker to name a member, and then await another member to move that the offending member be disciplined according to the appropriate rules of order.

There are ten "namings" given. Of the seven available on-line, none appeared to contain (extremely) unparliamentary language. Most were for arguing with the Speaker, some for grossly disorderly conduct.
