Lighterlater

Common sense campaign to move UK time +1hr for lighter evenings year round.

Sun times in London on longest day of the year

Sunrise of 05:43 and sunset at 22:21 would be infinitely better for:

The economy, reducing crime, transport, outdoor events, health, etc etc etc...

Time to go #Lighterlater!

NOT putting the clocks back in October =

More time outdoors for exercise ✅
Improved traffic safety ✅
Significant energy savings ✅

Happy #SummerSolstice2022!

Sunset 22:03 in Edinburgh, 21:21 in London. In both locations it will be light enough to read a book outdoors by about 04:15 tomorrow.

Why not push that back an hour so the UK can enjoy light, late evenings?

That time of year again, when the UK needlessly plunges itself into mid-afternoon sunsets. 🌇

Happy #SummerSolstice2021 to all!

A great shame #BST means its lighter outdoors at 4am than 10pm!

Time to go #Lighterlater !

[Lighterlater @LighterlaterUK]

Now do the same for 6pm. Oh wait...

Wednesday’s weather;

Includes a splash of 7am colour which is nice to see after the dark winter mornings...

[Lighterlater @LighterlaterUK]

Beautiful #sunrise trending on Twitter this morning.

The question is, wouldn’t it make sense to push it an hour later to avoid #sunset before any of us have even finished work?

Unequivocally, yes.

Just one day for @10DowningStreet and @RishiSunak to cancel the clock change!

Here's why it will hugely benefit the whole of the UK: https://t.co/WOEDzB6faB

Sunrise and sunset times in London tomorrow as #clocksgoback

Utterly ridiculous- dark before 5pm and still 2 months to go to the solstice.
#Lighterlater

[Lighterlater @LighterlaterUK]

@ST0NEHENGE Just beautiful. But 05:51am to 10:26pm would be better! #BST+1 #Lighterlater

[Lighterlater @LighterlaterUK]

Madness.

05:51am to 10:26pm is the way to go 🌞

Sunrise at Stonehenge today (20th June) was at 04.51am, sunset is at 09.26pm #SummerSolstice2020

[Lighterlater @LighterlaterUK]

At the #SummerSolstice the sun sets 10 minutes earlier on Gibraltar street in Sheffield than it does on The Rock itself- despite a day which is 2 hours and 23 minutes longer!

Time to go #Lighterlater to use our generous summer days during waking hours!

#SummerSolstice2020

[Lighterlater @LighterlaterUK]

Could be appreciated a lot more from 05:59am to 10:09pm!

Time to go #Lighterlater and use our summer daylight during waking hours☀️🕙

Sunrise at Stonehenge today (29th May) is at 04.59am, sunset is at 09.09pm

The average person is far more likely to go for a walk at 9pm than 5am.

Time this was reflected in our clocks.

#Lighterlater

[Lighterlater @LighterlaterUK]

Good idea, using our daylight during waking hours might help!

Daylight differences across the country for last night's #ClapForCarers clearly illustrates how BST disadvantages our most populous regions.

It was lighter at 5:50 am in the SE, when most are sleeping.

Time to go #Lighterlater!

Only mid April and early birds already rewarded with sunrise before 6am

But a light evening on the patio? Forget it. 🌇

#SpringEquinox2020 has arrived!

From now until September, day is longer than night.

Stay safe, stay strong.
This summer we beat #COVID19.

[Lighterlater @LighterlaterUK]

The days are now more than long enough for light either side of the working day

Bonkers having broad daylight at 6:30am but darkness on the journey home

#GMT: a gift to criminals and threat to commuters.

Time to go #Lighterlater!

[Lighterlater @LighterlaterUK]

Taking typical home time as 5:30pm, number of weeks a year in which workers leave for home in the dark:

🇫🇷 Paris: 11
🇨🇦 Calgary: 13
🇮🇸 Reykjavik: 14

🇬🇧 London: 17. 🤦‍♂️

Time to end this depressing madness and go #Lighterlater!
