Nice thought except there is zero chance of UK being allowed to drag its heels on Article 50, in fact some of the big European players are already saying they want the Article to take effect asap. This is a done deal. i must say that as a Welshman living in Europe (Spain) I am flabbergasted. As I understand it, Wales is an area where our net income from EU is greater than we pay in but we vote to leave in huge numbers. I even heard one "Leave" voter proclaim today "well we had to do something to stop those Muslims coming here" , a plain example of a simple person not even understanding what they were voting for!
