Doesnt it depend on what type of "scales" he uses ?


I think all kinds of "scales" could cope after the butcher's been told
how "weight" is defined for traders. Not just the units (presumably
Newtons) but also what value of "g" is to be used for balances (or for
calibration). I don't know how much it varies across the UK but I bet
the SNP would soon find out
