Is there a historical reason why England is a different time zone than the continent?
>>
Greenwich meridian casually passes through Greenwich
>>
>>1674204
Its not part of Europe.
>>
France and Belgium got this time zone in autumn 1940
>muh nazi occupation
and forgot to back in 1945

Spain got this time before nazi occupied west Europe in March 1940
>muh sucking Hitler's balls
and forgot to back in 1945

Continental Europe changed not England
England can't stand any change

>England can't stand any change
Muh prime meridian

>>1674257

It makes sense from economic and social point of view. It'd be retarded to cross the border at the Pyrenees and have to set the clock one hour less.

>>1674257
So it's Hitler's fault? What was the reason for his time zone?
>>
>>1674257
The spanish communist party tried to change it back once, and the conservatives stopped it.

Bloody conservatives.
>>
>>1674204
yes

>>1674204
How are Britain, Portugal and Russia in the same time zone?

Is this because the world is a sphere so there are parts of Russia that are at the same longitude as Britain?
