Stop altering the clocks from BST

I strongly feel we should stop changing the clocks from British summer time in Autumn. Its pretty miserable having such dark evenings when we instantly lose an hours daylight at tea time. It actually affects people's mental health. And some people don't go out after 5 o'clock as its already dark.

Background
As explained above, I see no benefit of changing the clocks from BST in the Autumn. Losing an hours daylight actually affects my mental health, and I know a lot of people who say the same thing.
