Until 1971 our currency was not decimal. Britain has undergone an extremely lengthy process of metrication that lasted from the 60s to the 90s and to this day people still use imperial units for measuring driving distance, beer and cider, body weight/height, horse height. It should be pointed out that imperial units are not the same as American units.
No, the drug trade is truly international. You can’t buy an 1/8 in the Netherlands for example. But dealers will always use whatever unit their clientele is comfortable with. But, dealers in the states also use the metric system if they’re buying from places like Mexico or Colombia.
The United States consumes a lot of drugs but there’s almost no export from the USA to anywhere except possibly Canada.
Thats pretty interesting, does Britain use ounces generally? I thought that was a US thing.

The drug trade is American, they also use pints for beer though
