Any MP wishing to defect, should immediately stand down and lose all parliamentary privileges.. .. With a by-election being called, then said mp stands for the party they wish to stand for.. Surely if they do not its Fraudulent to get in on one ticket then to defect to another party..

Too many mps defect to whatever suits them, stuff the electorate that voted them in... Fraudulent behaviour..
