It surely will prompt fresh infighting, though Johnson was such a pyrrhic victory for the party that no single faction has the power to rule, all they can do is keep chipping away at each other. You have the One Nation lot, the ERG nutters, the Boris loyalists and the 2019 intake (distinct but overlapping groups), all headed up by the weakest Prime Minister we have seen for generations. So the squabbling will continue, leaking and counter-briefing, death by a thousand cuts as we trudge towards a General Election.
