Irish MEP Seán Kelly is campaigning to end the EU's biannual clock changes, calling the practice outdated and harmful to health. He cites evidence that the shifts disrupt sleep and increase risks of heart attacks and accidents. Supported by MEPs from all parties and a 2018 public consultation showing 84% favoring abolition, Kelly aims to bring the issue back to the forefront in the upcoming parliamentary term. The next clock change will occur on March 30, 2025.
