The mood has certainly shifted in Westminster. I’ve had three texts from Team May contacts today who appear to be enjoying the corner into which the prime minister has backed himself. Two weeks ago they were looking enviously at a government with a plan bossing the news agenda

Don't forget today Boris Johnson has lost his majority and it about to expel up to a dozen MPs. I might, likely am, wrong here but remember a referendum over a couple of months is an entirely different proposition to managing party politics.
