I followed this chain of reasoning:

I know from locally stored knowledge that:
the United Kingdom commonly translates as "the United Kingdom" ([fact: ["1110408542@trueknowledge.com"]])

the United Kingdom is in the British time region ([fact: ["105703366@trueknowledge.com"]])

By calculation (generator: ["geographically_located_within_or_equal_to@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
the United Kingdom is geographically located within or is equal to the British time region

I know from locally stored knowledge that:
the British time region is a time zone area ([fact: ["104823689@trueknowledge.com"]])

By calculation (generator: ["time_zone_area_for@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
the British time region is the time zone area for the United Kingdom

I know from locally stored knowledge that:
Greenwich Mean Time is the time zone for the British time region ([fact: ["138194819@trueknowledge.com"]])

British Summer Time is the time zone for the British time region ([fact: ["104823702@trueknowledge.com"]])

By calculation (generator: ["now@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
The current time is February 4th 2012, 19:03:07

By calculation (generator: ["timepoint_sum@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
August 4th 2012, 19:03:07 is the timepoint sum of February 4th 2012, 19:03:07 and 6 months and 0 days

By calculation (generator: ["description_daylight-saving_end_in@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
Fact 1: the United Kingdom does not use daylight saving time. is the description of daylight-saving end in the United Kingdom

Fact 1 is true for February 4th 2012, 19:03:07 - August 4th 2012, 19:03:07

I used the following facts to provide this answer:

why do we only have four and a half months of winter time??? i hate the light nights and have to endure seven and a half months of them. this year clocks don't go back until 31 october - why so late. i'm sure it was in the middle of october last year. is it a ploy to do away with the correct gmt time to suit londoners. of course they will win in the end, they always do

The clocks go back on the last Sunday in October and go forward on the last Sunday in March. Simple. No conspiracy!

There is only so much light per day. In Winter it is in short supply. If "daylight saving" persists then we go to work and come home in the dark. Accidents involving children in the dark evenings? Shorten the school day if saving lives if your motive. In Summer, double Summer Time would mean light at 11.00pm! Try getting your kids to sleep then especially before exams.
The clock business is for the benefit of business, not people. Shun and spurn it, please.
