Meanwhile, in Britain, nearly 200 members of Parliament last night staged the biggest revolt against a governing party in over a century. One hundred ninety-nine MPs voted against Prime Minister Tony Blair, saying there is not yet a case for attacking Iraq. Rebel MPs included over 120 from Blair’s own Labour Party, as well as over 50 Liberal Democrats and even two dozen Conservatives and nationalists. But Tony Blair still has won twice as many votes as the opposition.
