Make it 20, ignore everything else

As got dealt with more thoroughly in the comments I mentioned the proposed 20mph speed limit reduction which has been garnering a large amount of talk and support. However what is interesting is one of the other proposals by the Department for Transport that seems to have slipped under the notice of the television media that being a return to Double British Summer Time. The quote from the Torygraph has the paper state that doing so would "would cut the number of road casualties by 1,549 over 20 years." As well as "yield benefits including energy savings from lighter evenings, more opportunities for sport and leisure and a boost to British business from being permanently aligned with other western European nations".

Also a YouGov Poll showed the majority of people were in favour of it.

Wow so full steam ahead to implement this then?

Well no because the same poll showed that although the majority of people in Britain were in favour the majority in Scotland weren't. But hey this is a democracy and we've got the majority of MPs so they should vote the way their constituents want so yay full steam ahead again.

Yeah right, expect this proposal to receive no examination in Parliament. Remember - all people are equal, but the Scottish are more equal than others.

Trouble is this can't be handled at a local level like the 20mph limits, if you have one county using SDST and the one next to it doesn't this screws up everyone so no one county/district/town will do it unless everyone else does.

Okay before anyone starts, yes this might have an affect on agriculture and construction, and for those who might mutter about software patches you just change your time zone to Paris.
