Well no need to worry after 2021.
Or given we might finally have left the EU by then are we going to stay with the changing every 6 months?

@SW-User I thought it was to do with farming??🤔

@Seren I think that was one argument. Whatever after a referendum, not well advertised in UK, the European Parliament voted to abolish it in 2021. EU countries will pick summer or winter and last adjustments will be March or October that year.
84% who responded wanted it scrapped

@Seren that was the original excuse for it
Some states in the US won't observe it

@rckt148 We tried not changing it for a couple of years when I was at school. Morning accidents involving minors rose....we reverted in UK.

@Moonpenny I remember all the armbands etc. But if we were remaining in EU we'd have to scrap it as it will become law.

@SW-User I know, how times change, eh?!
