Thats, you, what? The british pound is a currency, it is fiat, its exchange value freely floats against other world currencies, it has no objective measure in mass of anything.
Oh, how exciting: there are special units of measure for currants, as there are for wood, paper, gold, and so on? Is the the same in all regions where currants are cultivated?

Let the Europeans suffer under the yoke of the rigid and procrustean french measurement system. Let freedom of expression flourish!
