What the petition asks
Stop changing clock times so the entire population does not suffer a form of jet lag twice a year and remain on British summer time forever.
Keep British summer time forever, we will all be happier not suffering jet lag for a week twice a year as our bodies adjust to the new time.
Opting to stay with BST (and not GMT) we will have the light evenings to engage in more social and sporting activities.
There are numerous benefits, greater productivity, less head aches but the chief result would be Britain would be a little healthier and happier :)
