Rejected petition Do NOT invoke "Article 50" at least before there has been a general election

With such a small majority voting for "leave" in the EU referendum, the people of the UK urgently need an opportunity to reconsider this momentous and far-reaching decision. This opportunity will be provided by a general election and no precipitate invocation of "Article 50" should precede this.
