Milestones

Parliament should ban party whips in the House of Commons.

I think this would be beneficial as it would remove all whips and making votes in the commons to be more democratic as each MP can vote based on what the people in their constituency believe that their MP’s vote should go towards. I think that it should be changed as it means that democracy will be enhanced as a result of this and bringing the thoughts of the UK people closer to Parliament.
