See, this is why, if you actually want to have a clue about stuff, you don't read the Blogging Tories. 'Cuz if you did, you might stumble across something asinine like this:
Oops... Budget 2006 Passed
Why do I say "Oops", you ask? Because it seems the Opposition forgot to oppose the Tories Federal budget, and it was officially passed at 3rd Reading, with the "unanimous consent" of the House.
The "Opposition" forgot? Wow, that opposition ... what a bunch of cementheads! What ultramaroons! What ... whoops, what's this? Hey, let's pick a Prog Blogger to find out what really happened, shall we (emphasis added)?
Budget Passes Unanimously by Fluke
No one in the house realised the budget had been passed until after the fact (and this includes the Conservative Government) because everyone was waiting on a Conservative MP who had been scheduled to speak first was not in the chamber. Thus because there were no apparent speakers the budget was passed with unanimous consent and no one realised it.
And that's why you don't read the Blogging Tories unless you're stupid and you want to stay that way.

And so the budget was passed, while opposition members slept at the switch. LOL
