Opposition Whip

An Opposition Whip is a member of the political party not in power (the opposition) whose role is to organize and ensure party members attend votes, adhere to party policies, and maintain discipline within the group. They help coordinate members, communicate instructions from leadership, and encourage team unity to effectively challenge or scrutinize government actions. Think of the whip as a liaison ensuring everyone in the opposition works together smoothly, so the party can present a cohesive and effective alternative in legislative decisions.
