This is the instant response of Iain Dale and Andrew Marr to Boris Johnson winning a confidence vote among Tory MPs. IainDale | AndrewMarr9
When the result came in at 9pm, Andrew Marr said on air in a special Battle for Downing Street show on LBC: “It’s a heck of a lot of MPs voting against their own Prime Minister. He is living through a wilderness of pain and there’s more to come ahead.”
“Let’s all sit on that same rickety fence,” Andrew added. “He is safe tonight but he is not safe in the medium term.” While Conservative Party rules mean he is safe from a confidence vote for another year, Mr Johnson still faces a daunting list of challenges demanding his attention. While it is possible this might translate to more backbench rebellions, the biggest problem is that Mr Johnson's authority is now seriously dented and he may struggle to push through parts of his agenda should he encounter cabinet opposition.
