“The government has confirmed it is not planning to change the rules on selling in imperial measures after Brexit.
Ministers looked at changing laws inherited from the EU that mean traders can use Britain's traditional weighing system only alongside the metric one.
But they have now decided not to, after nearly 99% of respondents to an official consultation said they were happy with kilos and litres.” BBC
I assume that they’ve concluded the 1% will probably be dead by the next election.
