Do you want more sunlight in Britain?
Type - Common Interest - Current Events
Description - Putting forward some reasons to abandon (or trial an alternative to) the current system of BST/GMT. This could reduce carbon dioxide emissions, reduce road deaths, facilitate business with Europe, potentially boost tourism, increase outdoor activity, promote healthier lifestyles and enhance the well being of UK citizens.

An old debate

Hasn't this debate been running for decades, or centuries, even? I'd be very surprised if the government ever changed things. Not that that means we shouldn't debate the issue, of course!
