Petition Action

Bring back pounds, shillings and pence

Petition Details

Replace the current system (pounds and pence) with the old system of Pounds, Shillings and Pence, where there are 12 pence in a shilling, 20 shillings in a pound, and 240 pence in a pound.

Additional Information

The old system is part of our British heritage, and it is a distinctly British way of doing things. Bringing it back would encourage pride in our country's traditions.

If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
