Why do people keep using the term rational actor, I though behavioral economics has shown no human being is a rational actor?

I dont understand the UK tories, how come they arent fully owned by the financial services industry and scrambling to stop brexit. even in the us a lot of republicans talk a big game about deficits or whatever but when it comes down to a vote for more war spending or tax cuts they fall in line to vote for what the rich want due to the raw power of moneym

my understanding is that there's really no way to undo brexit once the referendum results came in
