Protecting the pint: British Lords vote to safeguard cherished measure.

David Mouriquand6 March 2025
Britain's House of Lords voted on Wednesday to ensure pubs can still serve beer in pints (568.26125 ml) - a cherished unit of measurement that survived the country's switch to the metric system in 1965.

Despite Brexit, the UK government has given up on a return to the imperial system of measurement.

Now, a new safeguard will ensure pints shall stay pints.
