Headlines I'm bored with: the Royal Family, the Israel/Palestine conflict and Brittany Higgins.

Some may consider this controversial but I think daylights savings time should be permanent.

Daylight saving time has a place in summer. In winter not so much.

And in a similar vein anything interest rate related. Hot tip writing about interest rates doesn't reduce them so shut the fuck up until you have something useful to say.

I'd love it in winter. Bit of extra daylight at the end of the day would be ideal. Would it be dark in the morning? Yes but I hate the morning anyway so I'm unaffected.
