I campaigned passionately prior to the referendum to stay in the EU. A majority of my constituents voted to leave and have continued to contact me asking that I do not interrupt the triggering of Article 50. This has far outweighed the number of people who have asked me to vote against the triggering of Article 50.
I was elected in May 2015 to represent the people of Swansea East and I must continue to carry out their wishes when voting in the Commons.
