Proceeding contribution from Eilidh Whiteford (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Friday, 3 December 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Daylight Saving Bill.


Daylight Saving Bill

I am afraid the reality is that there is a limited amount of daylight. Children are already dealing with the fact that there is half-light. The measure will not make any difference to that. The only difference is that we will have to get up even earlier. We can debate whether the prospect of separate time zones across the UK is realistic or not.
