Present the terms of departure from the EU to the British people for approval
With 16,141,241 voting Remain and 17,410,742 voting Leave, the margin in the European referendum was just 3.78%. If 2% had voted the other way, the result would have been different.
This means the country is divided almost 50/50 on an issue which fundamentally changes our future.
On the day of the result, leaders of Leave were questioning at least two major promises they made during the campaign.
The decision not so clear as the Scottish "No" vote in 2014. If just over 600,000 voters had gone the other way, 2%, the decision would be a nullity.
It has been widely claimed by voters that many voted Leave as a protest, assuming it would make no difference to the result.
A large majority of those most affected - young people - wanted to Remain.
