Here's a link to the most recent poll I'm aware of, conducted by the BBC Vote Results
Which system do you use for measuring Metric 30.03% Imperial 22.60% Both 47.37% 32105 votes cast Date of article 11 September 2007 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6988521.stm Now, as far as I can see, imperial is in a poor 3rd place.

It's not usual for me to disagree with you, Carleton but here in the UK polls tend to confirm a preference to imperial over metric (don't shoot the messenger!) however when the pound coin came in and the pound note went out I remember no reaction or 'anti-feeling'. I still remain confused at why there's the anti- feeling in the USA. (still 1-0, although USA deserved one)
