Donald Tusk was handed the historic letter by Sir Tim Barrow in Brussels Wednesday March 29,2017
Donald Tusk confirmed he had received the Article 50 letter with a post on Twitter
Downing Street released an image of the letter to Mr Tusk invoking the process for taking the UK out of the Brussels club
The six-page letter was handed over some eight months after the people delivered their verdict in the EU referendum.
It confirms that Britain will be leaving the single market, but wants a broad free trade agreement, and will seek an early deal to guarantee rights for EU nationals already here and Britons living on the continent.
But the missive also included a chilling warning to Brussels against trying to take revenge on the UK for leaving.
