That would mean the UK going unprepared into negotiations with an EU that has already prepared what it is going to accept or offer.

The new PM will have to research and prepare a number of options so that they can switch options if the EU knocks them back on their first choice.

Remember too that our EU Commissioner, Lord Hall has stepped down as he does not support Brexit so we need a new commissioner but that won't happen until we get a new PM who will have the job of appointing and instructing a new EU Commissioner.

As we only have 2 years to sort things out we need to know right from the start what we want so we can avoid wasting time discussing unnecessary things.

It is going to take a while to get things sorted and organised hence the reluctance to invoke Article 50.
