Should the UK return to Imperial measurements?

from Mark and Pete Hosted by Successful Minds

The UK government's plan to reinstate imperial measurements will 'bring British culture back', a Conservative minister has claimed. Currently, retailers and traders must use metric measurements, like grams and kilograms, when selling packaged or loose goods - although the imperial equivalents can also be displayed. Prime Minister Boris Johnson made the announcement on Friday to coincide with the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. But is this a good thing or a massive step backwards? Mark and Pete have the answers.
