Take Back The Clocks

Daylight saving clock changes are disruptive, unnatural, and unneeded. Let's simplify & adopt permanent summer hours.

No funding for a referendum on clock changes at this year’s Budget. Disappointing…

The natural constituency for @TakeBackClocks : toddlers, parents of toddlers, and those who remember having been parents of toddlers.

I'm excited to announce that I am the new spokesperson for @TakeBackClocks. We are a lobby group with a goal to abolish unnecessary and disruptive clock changes in New Zealand. Listen to my interview on the Herald's podcast, The Front Page, here: https://t.co/lUsO6rBWLs

TAKE BACK THE CLOCKS RELEASES TAX POLICY

Tax is a major election issue in 2023, as it is in every election. But the mainstream media and political parties continue to ignore the most painful tax of all: the tax on time. (1/6)

Take Back the Clocks is calling on all political parties to end the charade of clock changes, making tonight's raid on the clocks the last one before settling into permanent "summer hours", letting Kiwis prosper without the biannial interference of tyrannical time lords. (5/6)

"In recent years, a lobby group known as Take Back the Clocks has been pushing for New Zealand to adopt permanent daylight saving time, too. A petition they launched in 2021 about the issue has reached around 3000 signatures."

@ralph9 Not necessarily -- we support whichever option has the greatest chance of gaining public support so as to abolish clock changes.

[Take Back The Clocks @TakeBackClocks]

Does anyone know who funds these guys?

[KeepNZStandardTime @StandardTimeNZ]

@TakeBackClocks No thanks. You’re encouraging the worst aspect. Permanent DST has worse outcomes for health and wellbeing. Any permanent time should be standard time.

[Take Back The Clocks @TakeBackClocks]

No-one actually knows whether to turn clocks forward or back. We each just pick one at random and then when majority wins we pretend we knew all along.

The clocks are fucked
