In my experience people who move have usually been pushed first: like rats fleeing a sinking ship, look at where they started to see the source of the problem.

Yes, this is about Canadian politics.

Or are they unhappy with being treated like minions in one man's personal popularity campaign?

(Probably a bit of both, but some more one than the other.)

Yes, of course, but that wouldn’t matter if MPs weren’t already restless, unhappy, and looking for a change.
