Rejected petition David Cameron to trigger article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty straight away.
David Cameron told MPs in February that, in the event of a Brexit vote, the British people would “rightly expect” him to trigger article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty “straight away”
We do expect David Cameron to do that and petition him to do so straight away.
