In reply to Phillip’s remark that some countries have the option to return to their proper time zone: how may countries in Europe are west of Greenwich? Put differently, have a look at the map how the 0 meridian divides Europe. 
I’m in the Netherlands, tiny country and its around 5 degrees east of Greenwich. So that woul put us on UK time. Brexit aside, most of our commercial stuf is done with Germany. Opting for the German time zone will work, before DSTgot introduced we did just that even though it gets us up rather early in the morning. If Germany would elect for DST (UTC+2) permanently then we’d be even more out of sync with the sun.
