I expect Jo Swinson may be getting some interesting calls over the next few days.

Majority of 1, only takes one. Even if they are chucked out some MPs have said they'll stand as Independents in an election, so that's goodbye those seats, along with all the ones in Scotland.
I sense utter panic at No 10.

I'm not sure how many MPs would lose their seats if they stood as independent MPs. Presumably those Remain-voting MPs in Leave areas would be vulnerable to a new Conservative MP, but the Brexit Party may split the vote.
What this manoeuvring strongly suggests is that BoJo doesn't have a solution to the Irish border issue and that's been bluster.
