I don't understand prime ministers who resign. That would never be me. What? You don't like the job I'm doing? well too bad I'm not a quitter

I'd make them drag me from office

Saw something that could explain it. Possibly if they have to vote out the pm it would also trigger a general election

But maybe that's the pm causing it not the removal of the pm by a vote of no confidence? ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿค”

https://www.parliament.uk/site-information/glossary/motion-of-no-confidence/?id=32625

A motion of no confidence is a motion moved in the House of Commons expressing lack of confidence in the government or a specific minister.

Having the confidence of the House of Commons has been seen as central to a government's authority to govern in the UK. Traditionally, governments that have lost a confidence vote have either resigned in favour of an alternative administration, or the Prime Minister has requested a dissolution from the Monarch, triggering a general election.
