Plan to bring UK clocks forward

[xxMATTGxx]

Why do they have to change everything? Can't we just keep the same time we have used for god knows how many years.

[Slowpoke]

They are looking for public approval for the change and so far, so good

well SORRY for only reading the quote...

It's fine chick no worries x

dont think im bothered either way, tis only an hour

I like the idea of it being lighter at night during the summer months. Sitting out at eleven on a hot summers night in a beer garden with it still being light would be awesome.

This, it'll be so much nicer being able to stay out late and it still being bright.

That would mean that some winter mornings it wouldn't even get light until like 9 o'clock. Mornings are dark enough as it is in winter (nowhere in that article did it say it would only apply to summer months) and I don't know if you've forgotten what summer's like but it's light enough to be sat outside until at least 10 for a few months.

Also lol:

It would mean, for instance, that instead of the sun rising in Newcastle-upon-Tyne at 0714 and setting at 1723, as it does at this time of year, it would rise at 0814 and set at 1623.

Think they meant 1823 unless they're somehow destroying sunlight for 2 hours

Stupid idea. We don't need a time change. They should be solving problems, not making them up.

We'll be in the same timezone as France. Do not want. We're the standard time right here (GMT+0), if anything everyone else should change their time to match ours.

[Niall!]

you cant just mess with time, surely?

don't clocks move backwards and forwards anyway :S

& This just proves my philosophical theory of time existing
