I would love this as I would be more motivated to go out after work rather than just come home eat and sleep. I find I do more in the summer months.

I would like this to happen.

Sorry, gonna be a scrooge, but the darker mornings part puts me off. I find it really difficult to get motivated in a morning if it's still dark.

Wouldn't make any difference to me.

Yes please. I always liked this idea.

I used to hate getting up for work in the dark, working all day in a place with no natural light, then coming home in the dark. At least people working in similar situations would finally get to see some daylight in the winter if this happens. The sun setting at 3.50pm in mid-winter is so depressing.

I just wish we could get rid of the changing the clocks twice a year nonsense

I like light nights but if it was up to me i wouldn't swap an extra hour of evening light at this time of year for an hour in the morning.

I suppose it's ok if you don't have to be out and about until say 9 o clock in the morning. But when you have to be out of the house by 7:30 it's incredibly hard when it's still dark outside - it's the thing i hate most about winter.

For 7/8 months of the year there is plenty of daylight anyway - i would say we could probably put the clocks forward a few weeks earlier, maybe in late February, and put them back a bit later in Autumn. But in the depths of winter i'd rather have the light in the morning when i'm getting up than in the evening.
