They aren't able to see national interest, only their own narrow goals. They wanted to show they could push around the government whenever they wanted, and they chose to do it now.

That's the same conclusion I arrived at - the Conservatives in particular just couldn't bear the thought of the Libearl minority government choosing its own timetable. That's unfortunate, since the timing suggests to me at least that the Gomery Report is the only major issue the Conservatives are going to campaign on. What a waste.
