Rejected petition Stop the Clocks going back in Autumn BST all year round!

When the clocks go back in Autumn, we lose that precious hour of daylight and we are lost to the darkness at 4:00! This madness has to end! because no nobody and I mean nobody wants it to get dark BEFORE they leave work/school!

More details

Well it might’ve been beneficial for some students in northern Scotland many years ago, there is infrastructure in place now to stop that being an issue so why are we still having to compromise!? I know everyone else thinks the same when we have to get up one hour earlier so help me do something about it!
