    He has a choice, resign or call a GE and let the people decide. James Callaghan lost a Motion of no confidence in '79 and he asked the Queen to dissolve parliament and trigger a GE and we all know how that went! Different rules now but same principle.
    No, that was a vote of confidence in the government in parliament. This one is a vote of confidence in Johnson as leader of the Tories just by his own party. The Tories booting him out as leader doesn't actually remove him as PM until he resigns or the Queen asks another Tory to form a government (I think). So I think there would be a window where he could request a dissolution of parliament, but I've no idea if it would be granted?

    Douglas Ross to vote against (well he was as of 4.45 pm at least.)
    If he made up his mind as a linesman like he does as a politician, it would look like he's sending semaphore.

    Bozo surviving (which seems very likely) is probably the best thing for those of us wanting rid of the Tories. It means he will limp on as PM, but severely wounded. The Tories won't be able to say they are making a fresh start; all the scandals of Bozo remain with them. A new leader, more honest and more competent, would cause many people to forgive the Tories. I'm sure the opposition parties secretly want him to stay on.

    I think you’re right.

    But the current incumbent still has support from some areas of the general public. I honestly think he’d be in with a shout of staying PM after a general election.

    Tories are still lying *******s

    I’d rather just have someone competent in charge now. It’s nice to play political games but a lot of people are going to be really struggling over the next couple of years and they can’t really wait for a GE.

    shame on any individual that votes for that utter cowardly crooked corrupt clown, lets see which ones have a backbone

    wonder how many he's called promising them promotion

    (Always extremely) Sweaty sock MP Andrew Bowie votes against. As does John Lamont who has actually resigned his position as pps to Luz Truss.

    That makes 50% of Scots Tories confirmed as revolting.

    ha no surprise there :) Millionaire Tory Donors now getting in on the act and insisting they want corruption to continue no doubt so they can continue increasing the funds in their canary island accounts, there's never been a Tory PM/Cabinet perfectly willing to help out those with lots of money


    Dave Gould �� on Twitter: "Nadine Dorries has just announced that donors have said that they want Boris Johnson to continue and will withhold funding if he’s removed and therefore backbench MPs should listen to them. Nakedly admitting that the Tory party leadership is in the hands of a few millionaires." / Twitter



    apparently Dorries is having a tad of a meltdown on Twitter

    Rees Mogg back in 2018 with the confidence vote on Theresa May. 117 votes was a very bad vote for the PM according to him.

    Let's see how it pans out this evening.

    Some very long faces on supporters of
    @BorisJohnson
    after poll closed. One PM ally said of Tory MPs: They are a bunch of lying snakes. I don’t trust anything they say

    One of those long faces included a strong supporter of the PM who said of the rebels: I could throttle some of my colleagues. They want to hand our country to a coalition of Labour, the SNP and the Liberal Democrats. It will be votes at 16 and then who knows what will happen

    Moray Ross says he is supporting a vote of no confidence when the vote is a vote of confidence. Does he know what he is voting for

    I wouldn’t trust him to understand the ballot paper. Who knows what he eventually voted for.

    Almost 150 of his own MPs want him out. It's a real mess for Johnson, leaving him in limbo. He is severely weakened by the result.
