She only has that if the Conservatives are united.
Labour have secured their unity by role-playing in graphic detail the consequences if they are not.
A general election must be called.
I am really torn between my pragmatic and ideological sides.
And election now would be a cluster-fuck with a totally un-predicable outcome. We have finally given the rest of the world some semblance of certainty, do we really want to rock the boat even more?
Surely we want all hands to the deck rather than everyone focusing on a protracted élection ?

There are 64.1 million people on this ship, 35k local constituents and ~200 MPs are the only ones who have in any way voted for the person who will now be steering this ship.
I do agree that we need uncertainty removed, and stability restored, as soon as possible. But that isn't achieved by having a leader whose vision was only voted on by ~0.0005% of the population.
It's quite fucked.

The ones in power today are the pro-EU Conservative rebels.
