I buy my rules via ebay.com. Part of the reason is that I use imperial ones but I suspect much better metric ones will be available from the USA as well. Cromwell might carry some in the UK.

To get round Neil's short one I have rigid one with graduations across the ends as well. Also 2 styles of narrow flexible ones.

I usually buy Starrett. Satin chrome if I can. There are usually plenty of types on the site so easy to find.

I managed to find a couple of vertical scale rulers which are designed for use in a rule holder on a surface plate. Saves having to tilt your head on one side to read the measurement when setting a surface gauge.
