(For those not au-fait with British politics, a three-line whip means "You have to vote for this, or you are in massive trouble with the Prime Minister, and you may be thrown out of the party".
And the government whip is a person who makes sure that members of the party do what they're told.
Theresa May has lost _all_ control of her party.
