if an MP resigns from their political party must trigger a Byelection

Petition Details

I am fed up seeing members of parliament switching sides or making up their own political parties. If an MP wishes to stand down from the party they were elected on this must trigger a Byelection at the earliest opportunity.

Additional Information

15 MPs have moved from the political party they were elected on since the last general election. Their constitutions have been ignored. If MPs are confident they are doing the right thing they should be made to contest a Byelection
