Rejected petition Re-consider keeping British Summer Time all year round

More details

This was debated in Parliament, but was talked out even though the consensus from MPs was to move with the motion. Please can this be re-considered, as it will generate more jobs, reduce energy consumption, save lives and increase leisure time. It clearly makes no sense to have more daylight early in the morning when the majority of the population is in bed and dark evenings when we are awake.

Bill 2010-11
