The coalition was yesterday evening in the mess over the plot to move our clock time Berlin after David Cameron slapped down Cabinet colleague Vince cable.
The Prime Minister made his feelings clear after Mr. cable's Business Department announced that he was considering supporting a bill that would force us to join the German nationals in life hours ahead of GMT in winter and two hours ahead of the summer.
An immediate rebuke No. 10 was issued, stating that Scotland will never accept darker mornings in winter, the plan was dead in the water.
Critics say more morning darkness associated with an increase in the number of deaths on the roads and, if changes have been made, a large part of the UK will still dark when many parents make starting school.
"He will never accept it," the source said Downing Street. "And we wouldn't let it happen without throughout the UK, in the agreement.
So it's not going to happen. Simple As That. "
However, yesterday evening, saucy Vince cable had refused to accept a strong hint to abandon the idea. He told The Mail on Sunday: ' we see merit in the Bill. But we must proceed with caution, and we must seek consensus in various parts of the UK. "
Row, which erupted on the eve of the opening hours, returning in 2 am today, caused anger among conservatives Eurosceptic.
Berlin time contributes to the supporters of the European Union's efforts to harmonize time zones, the Member States, the leading Tory opponents plan to claim that an attempt to revive the idea driven by pro-EU Liberal Democrats in the Government and have No 10 in concession for Nick Clegg.
"He paid another coalition compromise," said one of the Ministers of the critic. "I don't think it's a coincidence that the Department of business is disproportionate with the Lib Dems.
"And this is the sort of thing that like Clegg."
One source of Government even stated that the idea of ' pal′cev"načal′nik staff, Mr. Cameron Ed Llewellyn ' whole ' as ' SOP for
Cleggites.
Discussion: how the Mail on Sunday has campaigned against the change time
Mr. Llewellyn, who used to work in the former EU Commissioner Chris Patten and pro-European Tory former Liberal Democrat leader Paddy Ashdown, is the prime suspect in connection with its friendly relations with his fellow Lib Dem.
But my friend Mr. Llewellyn had insisted last night: ' he had no involvement at all. He did not think he even expressed his opinion on it. "
Assistant to Mr Clegg also say that he has not discussed the matter with the Prime Minister.
Daylight saving Bill, sponsored by Tory MP Rebecca Harris seems to have been cancelled earlier this year, when Ed Davey, Lib Dem business Minister stated that no convincing arguments to support the ministerial and parliamentary time would become law.
But on Friday, Mr Davey seems to unfold when he says Lord cable Department is considering "review of the potential costs and benefits of moving the clock by one hour, and even three-year trial.
It is true that we at least in what may be the potential economic and societal benefits for any changes, said Mr Davey.
' Fewer road deaths, reduce carbon emissions and improve the health status of all were claimed over the years as the possible benefits.
"If there is substantial evidence to support this, we should at least see what are the possible benefits."
Tory MP Jacob Rees-Mogg jokingly called the plan '' vampire Bill ' because of its ability to come back to life when the nights draw in.
Speaking at the Summit of the Commonwealth of Australia, Mr. Cameron said: "I've always been interested in this debate as someone who loves sports and rest.
"But I always thought this could be done just as the United Kingdom and have always been very strong arguments in Scotland".
Privately, the Prime Minister said that change is not represented, regardless of the outcome of the review.
Yesterday, the SNP administration Scotland seemed to drive the final stake through the heart of the plan when he stated that "there is no reason to change existing mechanisms".
McNeil SNP Angus said: ' fixing clocks on British summer time will be ... have massive implications for the security and well-being of all people living north of Manchester.
