I appreciate not everyone is a massive nerd. So I'm going to attempt to explain what just happened in parliament.

Because it is BEYOND batshit levels of foot-shooting by Team Truss. /1
The opposition (repped by Ed Miliband here) called a vote on extending the fracking moratorium.

This was a trap. A really obvious one. One that had a sign on it that said "trap". A series of billboards extending a mile down the road saying "trap in one mile" etc.
It was a trap that would only work if Team Truss made it a 'three line whip' vote - i.e. you MUST vote with the government or you don't get to be a Tory anymore - and declared it a confidence vote in her government.

It could be avoided by not doing the above.
