Govt wins Iraq vote
The government has defeated a Conservative attempt to have the Iraq inquiry conducted in public.
It's majority was cut to 39 votes, but the motion was rejected by 299 to 260 votes.
Earlier in the day, foreign secretary David Miliband said the Iraq inquiry can "praise or blame whoever it likes", despite Gordon Brown's earlier insistence it will not be allowed to apportion blame.
