I reply to the letter: Daylight savings by Bronwyn Sindel Mullumbimby.
I have researched in-depth for many years the issues that ‘daylight saving’ have caused but actually, I did vote for the darn thing. After the actual results, as time marched on, I realised I had voted wrongly.
The vital point that people have started saying – ‘savings’, but of course this then infers that the clock-change is the most wonderful thing since sliced bread. Wrong.
As the years rolled on and more people became aware of the negative change in their lives, the time-change was fought to be stopped and never to be extended into the winter.
I have researched the clock-change in USA, Canada etc. The results… very negative from massive numbers of citizens.
Yes, I have read and commented on so many of the statements, views, opinions, numerous articles of the ‘daylight saving’ time change when scrolling the topic of how people are accepting, and/or said, ‘No way, don’t change the clocks, it was hated’. Been there, done that.
Even in the last year I have seen articles stating the medical evidence against the clock-change that has been named ‘daylight saving’.
Especially so, is the issue of sleep. Currently, yes, I have seen many medical articles explaining the sleep problem and ‘DS’ the culprit.
May the truth finally be revealed extensively as to what the clock-change actually does, and to all the people who have also said, ‘They’ve had enough’!
The four-year trial of no ‘DS’ has been advocated for, to really give people the opportunity to be able to experience life ‘back to normal’ and no clock-change.
For four decades The Echo has printed the stories some people loved, some people hated, and some pretended not to read. If you want us to keep telling the truth, the real truth, not the sugar-coated version. We’ll need your support to keep the presses rolling.
