Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Open clock
  2. Click + to add an world time zone clock
  3. There is no GMT+00:00 London so check GMT+00:00
  4. Click OK

Expected behavior

There should be a GMT+00:00 London so that you can have a clock that will change to BST in summer.
Without that I expected that GMT+00:00 would change to BST.

Actual behavior

There is no GMT+00:00 London
GMT+00:00 stays the same all year round.

The time zone imho shouldn't have GMT+0 in it's name. It changes over the year.

@Joshix-1
I assume you mean not just for London, but all time zones that are relative to GMT? But, then how would you want to show the relative differences between the time zones?
It would be a larger change but one option is to remove GMT+x but show the current time in hr:min at the cities/countries in the checklist. Please create a separate feature request for what you want.

Other option would be to replace GMT with UTC, because time zones are now in fact defined via their relation to UTC: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_zone

That would also be a good change. But a constant Offset would still be wrong.
