U.K. Prime Minister Johnson reportedly will bring back imperial measurements

Transcript1

To coincide with Queen Elizabeth's 70 years on the throne, Prime Minister Boris Johnson is expected to bring back imperial measurements — that is, pounds and ounces — just like in the U.S.

LEILA FADEL, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Leila Fadel. The queen of England is approaching her platinum2 jubilee3, and to coincide with her 70 years on the throne, Prime Minister Boris Johnson reportedly will bring back imperial measurements - that is, pounds and ounces - just like in the U.S. The U.K. uses a highly regulated mix of both imperial and metric measurements. And if the Mirror's report pans out, businesses could be relieved of at least some of those rules, perhaps taking the weight off their shoulders. It's MORNING EDITION.
