It’s not democracy if it can be postponed.

  The fuck? No agreement gets implemented in a day and I find it perfectly reasonable for priorities to switch in an emergency (like a global pandemic). I despise DST as much as 80% of the EU citizens who said it should be abolished in a survey in 2018, but I'd much rather have my legislators focus on the pandemic at the moment.

    > as 80% of the EU citizens who said it should be abolished in a survey in 2018 Although it should be noted that that survey wasn't exactly representative: Participants were self-selected, and participation levels varied wildly between countries. Curiously enough, around two third of the responses came from Germany, despite it accounting for only around 15 % of the EU population (pre-Brexit).
