9am was pretty tough??? What happened? Did you have a 4 hr commute? My heart bleeds for you. Most mollycoddled post ever, I'm afraid.
Circadian Rythms, everyone's is different. Homo Sapiens never evolved to wake up everyday to get into work at 9.00am. Hunter Gatherers also only worked about 2.5 days per week.

If that is the case then the job can be outsourced or reduce the day on contract accordingly. I seriously doubt some works can be cramped into or adjust at will to fit the employees, yes some can but not all.
I'm not cramping mine into anything. If my flexible working application is approved then I'll just move from 39hrs/five days to 32hrs/four days.
I am on zero hr contract yet I am doing as much as those on "flexi-hr". Shouldn't they be on zero hour contract as I do?
Sorry but that sounds like your criticism is simply down to jealousy.
Why should someone in my situation be put on a zero hour contract when all I want to do is drop a day? There is plenty of work for me to do.

😆 I am in no way jealous as this is one thing I can never be - jealous. Not in my life. You can have all the cash in the world yet it makes no difference to me.
In fact from a competitive stand point if this turn into full flow compulsory law, UK industry will definitely be digging herself into deeper hole. Does not affect me much ...

If the company continues to value you then you have no problem but once the company loses their competitive edge then there is such possibility.

bear in mind also, depending on the tax bracket you are in, its not in real terms a 20% paycut, more like 15-16%
