Rejected petition Abide by the EU Referendum result and invoke article 50 of the Lisbon treaty

On June 23rd 52% of UK voters voted to leave the EU. Since that date a petition has been started and will now be debated in parliament demanding a second referendum. We believe the democratic process has been followed and want the UK to invoke article 50 without further debate.
