You have to be careful not to give the Government carte blanche on anything so long as it's connected to, or they attempt to connect to, Brexit. The vote was to leave the European Union and not to suspend Parliamentary democracy. People voting against bills in Parliament with which they disagree, especially when that is the opposition opposing the government, is literally not anti-democratic.
Anyway we've agreed to pay an extra £44 million to secure the border as Calais.

An extra £44.5m is to be spent beefing up Channel border security, the UK government is to say later.
It will be spent on fencing, CCTV and infrared detection technology in Calais and other border points.
It comes as French President Emmanuel Macron visits the UK for a summit with Theresa May.
Britain is also expected to commit to taking more migrants from Calais, especially unaccompanied children, the BBC's James Robbins said.
