Petition Take 1p, 2p and 5p coins out of circulation.

More details

A petition to take 1p, 2p and 5p coins out of circulation, they are now meaningless with the modern costs of living. The effort of saving up pennies to reach £1 is no longer worth what £1 buys you.

There is never a need to move a price below the 10p unit.
