The government won yesterday evening's Five of Cornwall's six MPs backed the proposal to abolish EMA - Conservatives George Eustice, Sarah Newton and Sheryll Murray and Liberal Democrats Dan Rogerson and Stephen Gilbert. I can find no mention of St Ives MP Andrew George in either lobby.

STOP PRESS:

This will teach me to read to the bottom of the page. Andrew tells me he missed the first vote because he was doing a Newsnight interview, but joined his colleagues in voting for the government (ie to abolish EMA) in the second vote, which the government won by 319 - 256.
