MPs leaving their party- how come they keep their seats ?

[Aridane]

When an MP resigns from their party - whether to join another political party or become an independent- how come they keep their seat?

If I vote, I vote not just for the individual but also for the political party they represent.

I'll believe John Lansman on this issue.
He says its a massive issue for Labour.
And as he invented Momentum, I suspect he knows of what he speaks.

What are you talking about? perhaps actually read my question?

Lucian Berger's abuse was from the far right and UKIP supporters, Labour could do very little about that.
Not according to John Lansman

Nope. Still making no sense. I said Im aware of and have seen Labour anti semitism for myself, and I dont support Corbyn, or momentum. Im asking where did the abuse from within the party come from, because I cant find anything about it.

In regards to Luciana Berger.

So Chris Wilkinson is fine by you then ?
