The thing I don’t get is why it happens in the summer rather than the winter.

In the UK it gets dark at about 4pm in winter. We basically get no leisure time during daylight but we do get a bit of light during getting ready for work time when we don’t really need it.

I’m looking forward to hearing all the people that say raising taxes would lead to all the talented people leaving the country addressing this.*

Realistically I understand that they’re all talentless lying bastard failsons that just wanted to make more passive income from their family’s wealth and no journalist will ever challenge them on it.
