EU's stalled plan to abolish clock changes, seven years on

The EU announced in 2018 that it wanted to end the twice-yearly clock changes between summer and winter time, but nothing has come of it. A Heise online column takes a lightly satirical look at the history of European time policy, tracing how the Member States failed to agree on a common choice of permanent summer or winter time, leaving the familiar 'spring forward, fall back' routine in place.
Why now: The clocks changed again, renewing frustration that the EU's 2018 promise to abolish the switches remains unfulfilled.
