Because the elite know better and don’t want it. We have the same problem here in the US on a host of issues.
It’s like the no-so-recent ruling that Obamacare was unconstitutional.
They’ll get around to dismantling it eventually...

The British Deep State.
Note that it was not made a binding referendum by the person who called it - the British PM of that time.
It was agreed to call for ARticle 50 in December of that year and on March 2017 Theresa called on Article 50, giving the UK 2 years to leave the EU. She called without preparing. THAT was and is unforgivable. But to give her SOME credit, no one else was prepared - not Boris, not Farage, not Corbyn.
The UK didn't have a plan, didn't have a clue, didn't prepare, nothing
Here is a picture of David Davis, the UK chief negotiator starting his negotiations with the EU
Note that UK side is not prepared. They were not. Even into 2019 the MPs had no clue. They had a training in Feb 2019 (yes, THIS year) on what a Customs union entails). Can you believe that? Entering into negotiations unprepared?
That's why Brexit failed - no plan from anyone - not May, not Boris, nor Corbyn nor Farage.
May's personality exacerbated it, but no one else could have saved it.
