I dont like the change of time....i don't feel right

I don't like getting up in the dark

I like night's better

There's a reason it got voted against 3 times (i think?!... may not be true!) , and there's a reason they don't want to hold a referendum for it because they know majority will probably vote against it.


Kym people aren't trying to be ''different'' everyone has their own valid reasons for and against daylight savings.....mmmk shhhhhhbbshhhh

but then you safe the headlights in the evening by having an extra hour of daylight don't you? hehe

Ive even heard a comment that the extra hour of light gives HOONS more time to do stupid things!

BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!

I think its fantastic. I normally drive to work around 5.30am and I don't mind it being dark, coz hell, it's dark at that time for most of the year.

Having the extra daylight at night is really good for doing a lot of other jobs, going for a walk/bike ride etc.

Now if only there were more shops/cafe's open at night to get people to go to! (but thats for another poll, I'm sure )

Nice reasons against there guys...

You might as well just say you "dont like change"...

The people who would vote "No" are the people who voted no to having the internet, or slicing bread before sale... the same people who voted no to longer trading hours in shops and having pubs open through the week...

Dont really have a reason... just dont like it cos its a change... And change can hurt me...

Meh...

Bring it on... Daylight savings is great for the community... an extra hour of daylight to get things done after work... what better reason is there?

i love it!!!!!!!!!

Totally agree with you Kato on that point about cafes etc. Having been to Europe many times and seeing the cafes and whole different culture over there, it would be awesome if places of that nature over here stayed open past 8.00-9.00pm.

Honestly Perth is pretty boring...the reason some people dont like daylight saving is because there is nothing to do i that extra hour of sunlight. I think that if these people experienced DLS in another country where the extra hour is supported with activities etc...their opinions would change no doubt.

almost Every 1st world country incorporates daylight saving why should aussies be different.....harden the f#$k up people..

men are not supposed to grow breasts during daylight saving

I was being facetious dave, someone was commenting on TV that we had been duped with DLS by eating and drinking more when we would apparently be doing more exercise because of DLS....
