They might have, and still might, though the Germans don't want them to
Germany's interesting - we are their second largest trade surplus (they sell more to us than we do to them), so Merkel has been more dovish than Hollande and others.
The A50 invocation has to be explicit: either written or explicitly said by the PM at a meeting of Council. Cameron won't give it, and I can understand that - someone else's job to lead the country in a direction he never wanted - though he did say he would before the poll.
