No changes to weights & measures without Parliament & public agreement.
The government today signalled its intent to roll back on measures & reintroduce imperial weights & measures.
There is no mandate - stated or popular - for this action.
A referendum should be held to confirm this backward step should occur
There is NO benefit to the reintroduction of imperial weights & measures into British life.
Indeed, there will be additional costs in dual labelling plus confusion for future generations, AGAIN.
Unilaterally introducing regressive actions without consultation is undemocratic & needs both debate and public backing
