Are you happy with how your MP voted on article 50?

British MPs voted on Wednesday with a majority of 384 to give Theresa May’s government the authority to invoke article 50.

The European Union (notification of withdrawal) bill passed to its next parliamentary stage – and with 498 for and and 114 against, we’d like to hear from constituents on how their MPs voted.

A total of 47 Labour MPs voted against the bill, along with 50 SNP MPs and seven Liberal Democrats. Ken Clarke, the lone dissenting Conservative MP, joined them in the division lobbies, to applause from Labour rebels.

What do you make of your MP’s vote? Did he or she vote in line with your wishes, the wishes of the wider constituency, or on personal conviction? Were you surprised by your representative’s vote, or did they vote as you expected?

However you voted in the referendum, we’d like to hear your views. You can share them by filling out the form below.
