This is a straw man argument.
Nobody is contradicting the Burkean view of what an MP’s role and responsibilities should be. What many of us have done, repeatedly, is to point out that our MPs used the judgment they owe us to call a referendum and to promise to implement the result.
To argue that their failure to do so is in fact evidence of high principle at work is laughable.
