As Jim just pointed out, there were not many turncoats among MPs. Most voted the way they said they would.
But some MPs still managed to do wonders for their political careers by ranking the new leader Ed Miliband in fourth or fifth place.
They should all stand up and take a bow.
The runners up for the career enhancement award — who put Ed as the fourth choice — include: Hazel Blears, Chris Bryant, Derek Twigg, Mark Tami, Ian Austin, Gerry Sutcliffe, Mike Gapes, David Lammy, and Tom Clarke.
But the clear, hands-down winner is the legendary Paul Flynn, an MP who has never let his career stand in the way of his opinions. He put Ed down in fifth place.
