Inconsistent Minds

The following States members just can't make their minds up! There were two votes to go into camera in the States recently:

View Vote P1/2010/(re-issue)
 Waterfront Planning Application: Zephyrus Scheme. Proposal of the Deputy of
St Mary to go into camera  03 February 2010

View Vote P1/2010/(re-issue)
 Waterfront Planning Application: Zephyrus Scheme.Proposal of the Connetable
of St Brelade to move to 'in camera' debate  03 February 2010

Now some of the States members voted consistently for both propositions the same way. As the propositions are listed, there seems no basic difference - there is a vote to move to an "in camera" debate on the same applications. But half the house changed sides, making it look as if the voting was on partisan grounds rather than the eloquence of Deputy Wimberley or Constable Jackson. Do some people always vote against an "outsider" proposition and change sides if it comes from a Minister? Do others do the opposite? It certainly looks that way.

If you have any knowledge of why the States members seem unable to make up their minds consistently, please post a comment! As it stands, these votes make these members all look a little idiotic. I'd be willing to bet that some of them have even forgotten why they voted the way they did!
