Pretty much irrelevant when you're as far north as we are in the UK; it gets dark early no matter what. It's dark by about 3:30pm here in mid winter, so the hour's difference is really neither here nor there. There have been suggestions that we should stick to "summer time" all year round, but the objection is that children would then be going to school in the morning in the dark, especially in Scotland, and there are road-safety concerns about that.
