What the petition asks
We the undersigned call upon HM Government to Invoke Article 50 ASAP. The EU alongside people of this country want a speedy efficient exit from the EU and the decision to delay until October Article 50 starting the exit of the UK from the EU is counter productive, indecisive and creates uncertainty.
A detailed briefing regarding Article 50 may be found on http://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes/BRIE/2016/577971/EPRS_BRI(2016)577971_EN.pdf
