Rejected petition MP's changing party mid-term should face an automatic by-election.

Too many MP's are being elected on a manifesto they don't honour.

More details

If a person is elected as a Conservative in a pro Leave constituency and then moves to another party and supports remaining then he/she is no longer properly representing those who voted for him/her and should have the courage of their convictions by having an immediate and automatic by-election called.
