Rejected petition Respect the will of the people and invoke Article 50 immediately

Rejected on

The Brexit referendum showed that it is the peoples will to leave the EU.

The UK government should respect this result and immediately invoke Article 50 so that the negotiations about Brexit can begin.

Delaying this decision will simply cause uncertainty that will damage the UK.
