Political party members always choose their party leader. That has always been the case, so there’s really no point in all this confected outrage every time a leader changes mid-term.

As remainers never tire of reminding us these days, we live in a Parliamentary democracy. We do not, and have never, directly elected our executive. That’s equally the case when your favoured party is in government or in opposition.
Maybe true constitutionally "Chris", but in real life the next leader of our country will be chosen by 0.26% of the population.
