Petition Action

No changes to weights & measures without Parliament & public agreement.

Petition Details

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

Additional Information

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
