After last year's Brexit upset, pro-EU forces have floated every possible scenario designed to keep Great Britain a part of the now-shaky European Union. We've heard stories about taking another vote. Some have suggested a "Brexit in name only" course that would maintain British ties to the EU while simultaneously creating the appearance of compliance with the Brexit referendum. There have even been a couple of stories about possibly ignoring the whole thing and moving forward as if nothing had ever happened.
Bottom line? Everyone wondered if and when the Prime Minister would trigger "article 50" - the first step in Britain's withdrawal. Now we know.
According to the BBC, a "letter of notification" will be sent to the EU next week, and the negotiation of exit terms will start as soon as possible.
