John Hemming reports on his blog,
Confusion reigned in The House as the Conservatives decided to vote with Labour to ensure that there wasn’t a vote on the Pre Budget Report. Personally I think they didn’t know what was going on and will regret this in the future. Some came into the aye lobby and wandered out again. Technically there was a vote to have a vote 30 seconds before the end of the debate against which Labour and the Tories voted.

Surely this is cast-iron unimpeachable evidence of a Secret Tory Plot to, oh, I don’t know, kill firstborn puppies after 2011. Innocent mistake my foot.
It’s cast-iron proof that the Tories are more interested in grandstanding Gorgeous George than democracy and incidentally also that they are slightly scared about which way some of their MP’s would have voted…
