Rejected petition Make an automatic by-election happen by law if MP’s quit their party.

During these turbulent times MP’s seem to be able to ignore their constituents and party line with no repercussions. It’s time that if you quit your party or are forced to leave it you have to go back to the people for their opinion on the matter. The same for MP’s that go to prison.
