OK I will put this as simply as I can. Labour wanted to table a motion of no-confidence in the government and Johnson. The tories blocked that motion and substituted their own.

So a vote of no confidence WAS tabled but by the tories which was voted out.

Just as an aside Tobias Ellwood, tory MP for Bouremouth East has had the party whip woithdrawn from him for not supporting the government.
