    Well done, you’ve indeed just described the role of Whip that a person can fulfil perfectly. And you’re right, you do often need those people alongside leadership. And no, the term doesn’t come from literally using a whip, though I suppose it does make for some rather evocative imagery. I do really love the term “lose the whip” to mean that someone is expelled from their own party.
