No quite. Parliament is there to govern the country on half of the electorate. If they determine that the deal returned from Brussels is not in the best interests of the country then they have a duty to intervene.
This does come down to just dogma for some people: "I must Leave irrespective of the cost to me personally, my family, the people who did not want this and the country. The detail is secondary to the principle. I must Leave at all costs"
Sad times ..
