The Brexiteers and, to be frank, the right of the Conservative Party, has secured control at last. They have the leader they want. A leader they like - not one they have merely tolerated.It doesn't get any better for them, they have nothing to gain from continued failure. And moreover, nor do the ground troops.
There is no longer any Brexiteer king over the water, some Leave in tooth and claw figure who might secure a yet harder Brexit for those most fervently attached to it. Boris Johnson is for them, the best they are going to get. Their victory is so complete, that there is even total asymmetry of warfare: the remaining Tory moderates, those like Theresa May who were expelled from power, or like Nicholas Soames who were expelled from the party, traipse into the lobbies with those who vanquished them, showing a loyalty to Mr Johnson which he and his best supporters never reciprocated.
But it isn't just a tale of skulduggery. It is true that Mr Johnson has changed the base political calculation for many Brexiteers.I have thought much in the last 24 hours of something an ardent Leaver said to me in one of the tortured interims between Mrs May's meaningful votes. They told me:"Frankly, I'll only believe this is the best we can get when one of our own has been out there and had a go."Alongside ennui, the Conservative eurosceptics' complete victory in the long Tory civil war, this explains why, suddenly, a deal which is not so different to that which came before, is so viable when the other was so limp.Watch a special edition of Kay Burley@Breakfast from 8am on Sky News, with continuing coverage from Westminster throughout the day.
