This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Invoke EU Lisbon Treaty Article 50 Immediately.
The current Conservative government under David Cameron was elected on a manifesto committed to a referendum on EU membership - it was clear the result would either be to leave or remain.
To keep any faith with the public, this government must honour this commitment without delay.
More details
Until Article 50 is invoked the public can have no confidence that the result of the referendum will be honoured.
