This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Ban the BBC from quoting prices in Euro before giving the price in Stirling.
More details
The Countryfile weather forecast, today 11August 2013, quoted the cost to farming, during the 2003 heat wave as 13 billion EUROS, without giving the equivalent in POUNDS. Despite the worst concerted and relentless efforts of our dishonourable electeds, this country is STILL (in my hope forever) outside the eurozone, so if the BBC wishes to give monetary values in euros it should be legally obliged to give those monetary values in pounds Stirling first
