~~Most of London~~ The UK uses Miles Per Hour for speed limits. That's just the biggest example off the top of my head. Your assertion is inaccurate.

Edit: A weird thing to downvote but ok. It's more than just London, it's the whole UK.

Didn't downvote you but I'm guessing that's covered by "Tea-ville" which could be why.
