  Syria crisis: David Cameron plans reshuffle after chaotic defeat in Commons
  
  Prime Minister is reported to be furious as the full extent of the Government's disorganisation
  
  over Syria vote becomes apparent
  
  David Cameron will try to restore his shattered authority after his humiliating Commons rebuff
  
  on Syria by reshuffling his ministerial team - and shaking up a Whips Office being blamed for his
  
  disastrous defeat on Thursday night.
  
  Sir George Young, the Conservative Chief Whip, is expected to pay the price by losing his job in
  
  a reshuffle likely to take place within weeks. Although some Tory MPs believe he is being made a
  
  scapegoat for a rush to military action by Mr Cameron, ministers said the performance of the party's
  
  whips in the run-up to the crunch vote was poor. "It was the most woeful I have ever seen," one
  
  long-serving Tory MP said tonight.
