If it's 12 Noon here what time is it at the Poles?

The simple answer is that the poles don’t fall into any one time zone. International time zones are designated as being along the lines of longitude, and these meet at the poles. This causes a problem if you work there, which time to use you can’t use all of them?

So all the people who live and work at the Poles have agreed that the time there is the same as GMT so when its 12 noon in London its Noon at the Poles.
