That poll really wasn't representative. Very few people even realised that it was happening or how to find it. If I remember correctly it was more of a German domestic political happening that somehow got elevated to EU level.

EU figured that they'd need to leave it up to the individual states to decide.

I think most people still want to stop changing time, but they don't necessarily agree on whether to keep normal time or daylight savings time.

Everyone is waiting for everyone else to set the new standar because no one wants wildly different time zones in Europe.
