100% agree. Constituents should be able to recall their MPs.

That said, we also need way way more MPs. There is no reason a modern representative democracy should only have as many MPs as can fit a physical room. Given a fixed selectorate, the larger the number of keys a ruler needs to satisfy, the better the quality of our democracy.
