Actually the vote was not part of a Confidence and Supply arrangement. But the motion has passed anyway without any opposition.

I think George should write a book, "What happened", oops someone's already beat him to that title...

Brexit completely scuppered his plans to become PM. Brexit was not meant to happen. We all know Cameron was to serve his last term in 2015, was we looking at another Blair/Brown scenario, Cameron resigns 2018/19 and Osborne steps up to PM. But because George was on the wrong side of Brexit and May played a back seat Remainer role, while George was telling us in no uncertain terms, Brexit would be a disaster and we would need to have an emergency budget.

When May finally became PM, George was left out in cold in the reshuffle, seems the knives were really out.
