It’d still be dark at 10am in Scotland through the Winter if we did that, 9.30am in Northern England.Spot on. They should just leave it at BST all year round. As I said earlier in the thread, I see no benefit in changing the time now, then changing it back at the end of march.
Sooner have dark mornings and light evenings tbhIt’d still be dark at 10am in Scotland through the Winter if we did that, 9.30am in Northern England.
As opposed to dark at 4 in the afternoon. So, as I said, there's no real benefit to it.It’d still be dark at 10am in Scotland through the Winter if we did that, 9.30am in Northern England.
I’m not sure your conclusion is correct. People in those types of roles can start and finish when they need to in the main because their roles aren’t dependent on the wider timetable of the day, whereas people who work in schools, offices, catering etc have to work much more in relation to those around them and who they come into contact with, as their roles are much more interactive with others. They cannot work in purdah, whereas those that work outside generally can. I understand for agricultural workers (for example) there may be such things as childcare issues, but that applies to any worker in theory, but ultimately people who work outside can work around the available hours of daylight irrespective of what human construct is imposed upon that period.^^ it’s not as beneficial for people who work outdoors and rely on daylight. They have to start work later and finish later.
Granted that’s not loads of occupations like.
