[tz] EP vote on EU DST; afternoon gloom in Scotland

On Thursday, the European Parliament voted 384-152 to pass a nonbinding resolution calling for the European Commission to re-evaluate the current system of daylight saving time in Europe. An article about this and how it's entangled with European politics can be found here: Yeginsu C. Daylight saving time: what's it good for? European lawmakers ask. New York Times. 2018-02-09. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/09/world/europe/europe-daylight-saving.html My favorite quote is about the UK Daylight Saving Bill 2010-12. Yeginsu writes: "That bill was met with fierce resistance in places like Scotland, where residents argued that they liked the afternoon gloom just fine."
