Waste of time. No way they're going to bring don their own gov to replace a PM who will be gone in like 7 weeks anyway, some of which parliament is even sitting. 

they'd be voting themselves un-employed, so never going to happen.

No they wouldn’t. The Queen will ask if anyone else can command the confidence of the Commons so if the Tories wanted to get rid of Johnson then they can get behind Raab till the leadership contest is finished.

If no one can command the confidence of the Commons then there’s an election.

This is a great move by Starmer regardless of what happens.

I guess it's a way for labour to let people know they're still here and relevant whilst everything is about tories talking to themselves...and then to show to the public that those scummy tories are still backing that scummy boris and they're all as bad as each other etc.

It’s funny, when there’s a threat to the Tories all of their supporters come out of the wood work 😉

There are 9 days until summer recess and a new leader will be in place by the time it is over. It isn't happening.

Starmer could stand up in the commons and take a dump on the benches during PMQs and you would say it was a good move tbf

Or maybe it just isn't a good move politically lol

The fact your only response to maybe Starmer isn't the messiah is to scream Tory is very telling.

Seem to remember when Chuka Umunna quit politics he said there was very little talent coming through and he put the blame squarely on twitter and the abuse MPs get.

I think it's that last paragraph that is the sticking point, as Labour have tabled the vote against the government and the prime minister - so as it mentions an individual, then it should be in opposition time.  According to the Beeb:

In a statement, a government spokesperson said: “We have given Labour the option to table a straightforward vote of no confidence in the government.

"They have chosen to play politics by tabling a vote of no confidence in the government and the prime minister."
