Rejected petition Do not trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty.

Rejected on

The EU referendum result was not legally binding. A significant number of people who voted leave did so on the basis of factually incorrect information. There is no legal obligation to trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty and this government should refuse to do so.
