You mean they get their positions/jobs merely because they are female? As opposed to having any ability.

Gone before they were pushed.
I demand a People's By-Election Vote in their constituencies, we need to have one with the new information that has come to hand on their defection to another political party.

There should be By-Elections in all the 11 constituencies where the defections have taken place that is for sure.

Re: 11 MPs leave their Parties to join The Independent Group
The problem with forcing by-election when this happens is that people will wait until they are pushed instead of them jumping. Would it be right in all cases to force a by-election where MPs are "pushed" out?

Is it right for their constituents to no longer be representing the party manefesto that they were elected upon?

That might not necessarily be true where they are "pushed".

I know you're being somewhat ironic there, but I do think you are right - they were elected for their party, and now they've changed sides there should be a by-election.
