Let the ELECTED MPs in the House of Commons vote the way THEY think is right not what their whips tell them to. Its undemocratic!
In the debate over the EU referendum all 3 of the main political parties formed a 3 line whip to ensure their MPs voted the way they wanted. Let us remind them that these elected MPs are representitives of the people, with this said they should not threaten them to stop their political carreers. This is wrong and undemocratic and goes against the electorate. Its meant to be "a government for the people, of the people, elected by the people" not for Cameron, Miliban and Clegg.
