The plot thickens - now they've called one on themselves

Actually reasonably smart.
The Labour one was confidence in Johnson. Tories either had to vote for no confidence or effectively back Johnson.
This one is confidence in government, which I suspect the government as a whole has.
Gets round the "scared to have a vote" claims and most people won't care about the nuance.

Staying absolutely classy to the end, the government denies Labours VoNC (which the government would almost certainly win) as “playing politics”.
