Perhaps the Government is carrying on the wish of Cameron who stated if the result was to leave he would invoke A50 straight away. I didn't hear anyone in Parliament or anywhere else raising an objection. That would've been the correct time to do so.

Once the vote was to leave what did Cameron do? He ran away! At least Teresa May is attempting to carry out the promise made to the people made by her lilly livered predecessor.
