Talk in today's Torygraph that the Scots will put the mockers on it -
again. The proposal, apparently, has to have the agreement of the
devolved assemblies.

If devolution has truly occurred, why can't the Scots just arrange
their own daylight hours and leave the rest of the UK to sort out
theirs? It's not as if a difference in time is going to cause too many
problems across the border. Some countries cope, quite happily, with
different time zones within their own country; why not the UK?

It would seem a bit odd for a country as small as ours to have two
different time zones.

If a country like China can operate with one time zone, why not the UK?

Maybe because the Chinese would not have any choice in the matter?
