If one party gets a majority, the PM is beholden to them at every turn, as a block vote by the party ends his tenure - albeit it's likely to backfire. I suspect it will evolve to be a 2 or 3 party system...
A minor party PM is going to have to kiss some serious ___ to even bother trying to govern
There's one unaddressed issue in your sketch: filling an empty PM seat due to resignation, infirmity or death. Is that "new government overall," "New PM and possibly cabinet," or "hand off to some cabinet member." Note that first might be seen as "God voted no confidence" or "Rebels voted no confidence," depending upon mode of death.
