Podcast: Invoke Democracy Now's Rob Killick speaks to Rob Lyons

Since the vote to leave the European Union in June, the

government has equivocated about when it will trigger Article 50 of the
Lisbon Treaty, initiating the two-year process to exit the EU.
Meanwhile, a host of individuals and organisations, from law firms and
business tycoons to high-profile politicians and rock stars, are doing
everything in their power to overturn the referendum result. In this
week’s Podcast of Ideas, Rob Lyons talks to Rob Killick, a founder of Invoke Democracy Now,
a group campaigning for Britain to leave the EU without delay, about
the urgency of triggering Article 50 and how Brexit has reinvigorated
the democratic spirit while giving an aloof political establishment the
shock of a lifetime in the process.
