What the petition asks
On June 23 2016, the United Kingdom held a Referendum on our membership of the European Union. The result was in favour of the UK Leaving the EU. Therefore, it is the wish of the Brisith people that we leave, and that should be acted upon at the earliest opportunity. Please invoke Article 50 now.
