The 'times' they are a-changing! New 20hr Day Under New EU Law

IN KEEPING with EU policy to have the metric system in operation as much as possible, a proposal has been put forward by a European Parliament sub-committee to create a uniform time zone throughout the member states.  Previous 'change-overs'were successfully implemented (as in weights, measurements, the monetary system and, of course the smoking ban), but fears are that this will create chaos in Ireland, as well as other EU countries. The proposal is to have a standarised time. This will mean that instead of the normal 60 seconds in a minute; 60 minutes in the hour, there will now be 100 seconds in each minute and the normal 24 hour day will be reduced to a 20 hours day! This will cause widespread confusion nationwide as we struggle to grasp the new 'times'. It will see the end of clocks and watches as we know them as they will be replaced with digital timers that will be synchronised to a satellite to ensure every one of them is at the precise time. This is presently in operation in Switzerland. There will also be significant implications particularly for average workers who work an eight hour day and has drawn criticism from the trade union movement, saying it would mean a longer working day for their members for the same money. For the average family it means all clocks in homes throughout the country will have to be replaced with the new common Eurozone time. This, in effect implies all appliances with 'timers', i.e. cookers, heating systems, alarms, etc., in the home will have to be replaced as will televisions, videos, cookers, fridges, car radios and a myriad of other electrical goods. The recommendation has financial implications for many businesses throughout the country who retail electrical items with timers attached. Employers'organisations have argued that the recommendation will create thousands of new jobs manufacturing and fitting the new time pieces. Union representatives say the likely result will be that ordinary families will be forced to discard perfectly sound household utilities and purchase new ones. The proposal has to be ratified by the European Parliament but as the subcommittee is representative of the main political parties throughout Europe this is not expected to be a problem. The report titled "The Conformity of a Eurozone Time Throughout The 20 Member States" will come for ratification tomorrow, Thursday. Once the report is adopted it is then incumbent on all member states including Ireland to implement the proposals. As European law supercedes Irish domestic law in this instance, the government of the day will have no option but to implement the report in full. It is expected that it will take up to about 18 months before all aspects of the new Eurozone Time Law is fully implemented.

This bit just jumped off the screen!


"One World
The United Nations Organisation is dedicated to creating One World.
Yet, it has not lived up to the expectations of those of us who created it.
It must be given more ideas, more power, more control and more funds.
It would benefit from full-time-job-sharing-as-the-norm at every level.
The Worldwide System could soon help pull our Human race together.
It could eradicate the global scourges of unemployment, poverty, illness,
inequality, crime, punishment, corruption, conflict, pollution and waste.
It is time to put Time into chronological-calendrical-horological order.
It is time to put Space into a more logical global-digital-decimal order.
The Worldwide Web rapidly became a new global standard and there
is no reason why The Worldwide System should not become one too.
With a clean sheet of paper or hard disc we can restart our Human race."

You think they are trying to hint at the truth through what the majority would percieve as a hoax? I saw the same article on the Sun Website link here; http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/mysun/article982514.ece

Reasons why? To make everything uniform so that the PTB can (try) edge in a little more with their agenda for one world governance, as well as confusing us and our biorythms.

I did a bit of research and found this quite blatant article:
