  Coalition Against International Terrorism - Deployment of UK Forces to Afghanistan
  
  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  @ MP voted aye technically to adjourn the House of Commons, however given the context this has been interpreted as support for deploying UK armed forces to Afghanistan.
  @ MP voted no technically against adjourning the House of Commons, however given the context this has been interpreted as opposing deploying UK armed forces to Afghanistan.
  
  The majority of MPs voted technically simply to adjourn the House of Commons, however this has been interpreted as support for the then Government's Coalition Against International Terrorism and support for deploying UK armed forces to Afghanistan[1][2].  
  
  All the other MPs tried to prevent those MPs opposed to the deployment of UK armed forces to Afghanistan from recording their votes by refusing to act as tellers during the voting procedure. This meant two of those MPs who were opposed to the deployment had to act as tellers in the No lobby and have their votes counted in the opposite way to the way they wished to vote. 
  
  Following the announcement of the result of the division this occurrence was raised, for the record, in a point of order[3]: 
  
  :On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. For the record may we clarify the fact that all four Tellers in tonight's vote are opposed to the war and that it was a procedural issue that demarcated them as Tellers?
