Whipless MPs
I have removed
Sam Gyimah from this template as he is now a member of the
Liberal Democrats. However, I am unsure whether other MPs who have lost or resigned the whip, but have not (so far) joined other political parties such as
Philip Hammond,
Dominic Grieve,
Nicholas Soames and
Amber Rudd should be left in for now. In the past there have been several instances of MPs of all parties losing or resigning the whip, but regaining it later, and there is speculation that in some cases this may well happen. On the other hand in some of the cases this looks unlikely to occur. From a strict point of view they are not currently members of the Conservative Parliamentary Party, so I am leaning towards remove, but think this needs discussion first.
