No 10 blocks Labour vote on government and Boris Johnson
The government has refused to allow time for a Labour no confidence vote in The government and PM, accusing The Party of opting to " play politics" with The motion's wording.
The government Said it would allow a vote of no confidence in The government, but not The Prime Minister .
A spokesman Said The PM had already Said he would quit and a vote would not be a " valuable use" of MPs' time.
But Labour accused ministers of " running scared".
Under Parliamentary conventions, ministers should allow time for MPs to vote on a motion from The official opposition expressing lack of confidence in The government.
Erskine May - The Bible of parliamentary procedure - Does not set precise rules about what would count as a formal no confidence vote.
But Deputy Speaker Nigel Evans Said The government had concluded that Labour's motion could not be considered as such.
Nikki da Costa, a former No 10 advisor, Said Labour's motion was " not a traditional confidence vote" and therefore " doesn't pass The test".
Labour has argued there is precedent for a no confidence motion in Prime Minister , citing an instance on 2 August 1965.
Earlier on Tuesday, Labour Leader Sir Keir Starmer Said he wanted a vote to prevent Mr Johnson " clinging on for a few months" after his own MPs forced him to announce his resignation.
" We have put down a vote of no confidence, and challenged any Tory MP who in The Last few days has Said - 'I can't serve Boris Johnson because you can't trust a word The Man says'.
" Can they really vote to say he should stay in power for another few weeks? "
Labour's motion had been tabled on Tuesday, and The vote was expected to take place on Wednesday.
The motion read: " That this House has no confidence in Her Majesty 's Government while The Rt Hon Member for Uxbridge and South Ruislip remains Prime Minister . "
The government declined to give time for The vote saying: " They [Labour] have chosen to play politics by tabling a vote of no confidence in The government and The Prime Minister .
" As The Prime Minister has already resigned and a leadership process is underway we do not feel this is a valuable use of parliamentary time. " Should Labour amend their motion appropriately, they can have The Next Business Day for it to be debated. "
Labour hit back accusing The Conservatives of " changing The Rules to protect their own dodgy mates".
Mr Johnson announced his resignation as Tory Leader on Thursday but has Said he will stay on as Prime Minister until a replacement is found.
The Next Conservative Leader - and next Prime Minister - is expected to be announced on 5 September .
