Rejected petition Have the UK government trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon treaty immediately.

After our countries courageous vote in favour of leaving the European Union, I call upon the Government of the United Kingdom to trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon treaty and start our exit immediately. I believe a prolonged period of uncertainty does not have a positive effect on UK or EU affairs.
