LETTER: British spurn call to rise and shine early
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.From Mr John Tippler
Sir: Sweden is 15 degrees east of the UK - ie, an hour's natural time ahead of us. Copenhagen, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, and Rome, too, are all at about that same distance to the east.
If Brian Wilson's arguments about the benefits are good, all those places should be thinking about putting their clocks yet one more hour further forward. Perhaps I should begin to lobby my Swedish friends immediately.
Yours sincerely,
John Tippler
