Minister David Frost announced this on Thursday.
Honestly, once the pain of conversion was done, why would one want to revert? Having grown up with Imperial, I find the system awkward at best. I use imperial more or less since I'm in an imperial world. Metric makes more sense and seems to be less error prone.
Converting measurement systems back and forth at countrywide level has to be disruptive. Going back to imperial will probably make Britain even less competitive world wide.
What do you folks think of this?
