Keep existing units of measurements for markings and sales. Stop consultation.

What the petition asks
We want a government to stop this unnecessary exercise which is just a political post-Brexit stunt with no real benefit to consumers or businesses. If not, Parliament should hold the government to account for wasting civil servants' time and taxpayer's money.
Consumers and businesses don't want or need this and money will be better spent elsewhere.
