Commons is set to agree. Conservative + Labour + Lib Dem all in favour is easily 2/3rds of the MPs - and given SNP are only abstaining it's like those seats don't count rather than them counting against.
It is a power grab, but not one in terms of years in power - it's a grab of a load more seats from a weak and vulnerable Labour Party so she has a more solid majority and doesn't have to worry about making any concessions to other parties whatsoever. She'll never get a majority in the Lords though, so that could prove interesting for Brexit - even if the Commons doesn't ever vote anything down on it.
