I used to think NO as it was nice for it to go cooler in the evening on those hot days.But now I think YES time we could sit on the beach at 7ish and enjoy the light nights.

Thanks for the link. I've had my vote.

I'm not there yet, but I like lighter nights. Why wouldn't people want it lighter later? And as shade8 says, it would also be warmer later.

Apparently some of the reasons previously put forward are

It will be hotter when kids go to school
The cows will get confused at milking time
Thre curtains will fade faster
nothing happens very quickly in WA
