I think the easiest way to permanently switch to UTC+1:00 will be to first try UTC+2:00 for a year; few people are going to accept only seeing the first rays of the sun at around 9:50 in winter.

I live in the Midwest and everyone I know would MUCH rather have light until 9pm than darkness at 4pm. Get up for work, it's dark. Finish work and get home. It's been dark for an hour. It's incredibly depressing. Everyone is at work at 9:50am, who cares whether it's light outside or not?
