Right, but they can't precision target the PM with a confidence vote that is legally binding and specific to the PM, there has to be the risk of a general election or a vote that says "actually the government is fine. sorry. never mind."

A PM is just the head of a government. The idea of "precision targeting" the PM separately is meaningless.

I agree but that doesn't mean Labour hasn't floated voting no confidence in the PM (and May before Bojo) despite the fact that it doesn't mean anything at all or have any impact on anything.

it suddenly strikes me as odd that the term "Brexit" is used in like official correspondence et cetera. You'd think it would be popular/media shorthand and the PM would say "our separation from the European Union" in formal contexts, but nope: Brexit.

There's no such thing as an "official word" op. The OED (and other dictionaries) might add a word to its dictionary, but there's no official body that governs what is correct in the English language, like there is in some other languages :)

To put it bluntly, no, apparently not...

"There are, as you'd expect, the dietary details which go towards the picture of Rees-Mogg as a lovable eccentric. At Oxford, he confides to a friend that something has "gone wrong" with a loaf of Sunblest - "It had gone green. He'd bought it four weeks before and stored it on top of his radiator." Unable or rather unwilling to cook, he survives on cheese and Bath Oliver biscuits when no-one is around to wait on him."

"What is truly striking though is how much Jacob Rees-Mogg's diet resembles a Private Eye parody of Jacob's Rees-Mogg's diet. The great Craig Brown could not have done better."

"His sweet tooth is a theme. A former flatmate tells us Rees-Mogg has "sugar on everything, including Frosties". At Claridge's, he always orders chocolate soufflé. He has a penchant for Cadbury's Creme Eggs, stacking up to 60 on his desk at one time."

The article goes into more detail but watch for pop-ups from that site.

BREXIT

It's been ridiculous the whole time, it's barely a word, but it's the only one on anyone's lips. The proliferation of such a crude portmanteau to the highest reaches of power and most official channels is a wonderful example of the destablizing capabilities and idiocy of the ideas which the word represents. It's one of the most beautiful words in the english language, in a way, because it takes a thousands of years of resentment and history and politics and culture, as well as a complex seemingly endless and nightmarish situation and condenses it into two simple and ugly syllables. It rolls off my tongue like a mouthful of chalk dust, and says everything I could hope to much better than I ever possibly could. Brexit.
