Should we scrap British Winter Time?

Should we scrap British Winter Time?

According to a new survey turning the clocks back each year causes Britain to use much more energy than would otherwise be needed, and vastly increases our costs and carbon emissions.
In light of this information do you think that the time has come for British Winter Time to be scrapped? Would you welcome an end to it, and would you prefer the extra hour of daylight in the evening? Have your say.

    time is a reference and should never be tampered with.
    summer time/winter time is simply absurd, just like
    . a longer and a shorter meter for extensive and brief distances
    . a heavier and lighter kg for ponderous or little loads
    . a different 0 degree for hot and cold countries
    . shorter years for young people and longer ones for adults
    how can we act now to have our leaders see the reality and abolish this aberration of summer and winter time.
