The reason is that, despite appearances to the contrary, not everyone in the UK lives in the south of England. The Scots apparently objected (for some strange reason) to having to wait until 10 o'clock before the sun arose in mid-winter. More seriously, I believe that it caused an increase in traffic accidents.
