Invoke article 50 ASAP.

What the petition asks
The British people have declared their wish to withdraw from the European Union in a referendum that was subject to bias from the media and state-funded propaganda in favour of a "remain" vote.
Parliament must now act on this clear majority of over 1.2 million people.
This remarkable and largely unexpected result, however, is under threat with MP's already stating that Parliament should not invoke Article 50 and begin the process of withdrawing from the EU and online petitions from the failed "remain" camp demanding a second referendum be held for no other reason than they lost.
We demand that Parliament accepts and respects the result and invokes Article 50 as soon as possible.
