There are some (former) Brexiteers who demand that now we have left the evil clutches of the EU, we bring back the £ shilling and penny along with scrapping metric weights altogether.
These were something that were brought in my EU legislation and not something that is British.
Why should the UK continue to use systems that we were forced to use when joining the EU?
The British Empire should not be bound by archaic rules from the EU - we now have (well always had actually) our sovereignty.
The only issue with these perfectly valid demands would be that many of the Brexiteets struggle with counting as it is and moving back to the 12x table could well be considered a step too far.
Never mind, onwards and upwards.
We are NOT "Johnny Foreigner" and will go our own way no matter what it costs.
Remember
We won - get over it |

Today 17th Feb is the 50th anniversary of Decimal Day (1971) when the UK and Ireland changed over it's currency. The EU was created in 1993, so this happened 22 years before the EU and had sod all to do with the EU.
This confirms this Johnny Foreigner living in the South of France is a complete tool.! |

"Watching news this morning at last found out why there was 240 pence to the pound allways something new to learn"
From my younger days I know that a 2p weighs a quarter, a 1p weighs an eighth & a half penny weighs a sixteenth of an ounce x |
