Description:
------------
Appears that the BST to GMT switch is not been applied correctly

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$objDateTime = new \DateTime("26 October 2014 00:15:00 +0000");
$objDateTime->setTimeZone(new \DateTimeZone('UTC'));
var_dump($objDateTime);
var_dump($objDateTime->getOffSet());
var_dump($objDateTime->getTimeStamp());
var_dump($objDateTime->format("d F Y H:i:s O"));

$objDateTime->setTimeZone(new \DateTimeZone('Europe/London'));
var_dump($objDateTime);
var_dump($objDateTime->getTimeStamp());
var_dump($objDateTime->format("d F Y H:i:s O"));
var_dump($objDateTime->getOffSet());

Expected result:
----------------
string(30) "26 October 2014 00:15:00 +0000"
string(30) "26 October 2014 01:15:00 +0100"

Actual result:
--------------
string(30) "26 October 2014 00:15:00 +0000"
string(30) "26 October 2014 01:15:00 +0000"

I think that date_time is actually more accurate

I can not reproduce this with PHP 5.5.17 - you filled in "Irrelevant" for PHP version, which is not helpful. In any case, for me, this outputs (after removing your extra var_dumps):

derick@whisky:~ $ php /tmp/test.php
string(30) "26 October 2014 00:15:00 +0000"
string(30) "26 October 2014 01:15:00 +0100"

So, which PHP version is that?

Hi

There was no option in the drop down for my version.
I did not think of adding it to the comments.

Details are as follows:

That version is way too old. PHP 5.3 is no longer maintained: http://php.net/archive/2014.php#id2014-08-14-1 and 5.3.*10* is 2½ years older than the latest 5.3. release. Please upgrade first.

Hi Derick

Testing your script on my machine works as expected and the bug is not there.
It appears the getTimeStamp causes the issue.

Revised script that needs to be run:
$objDateTime = new \DateTime("26 October 2014 00:15:00 +0000");
$objDateTime->setTimeZone(new \DateTimeZone('UTC'));
var_dump($objDateTime->format("d F Y H:i:s O"));

$objDateTime->setTimeZone(new \DateTimeZone('Europe/London'));
var_dump($objDateTime->getTimeStamp());
var_dump($objDateTime->format("d F Y H:i:s O"));

This has also been tested on the following configuration, and the bug persists:

PHP 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.4 (cli) (built: Sep  4 2014 06:56:34) 
Copyright (c) 1997-2014 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.5.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2014 Zend Technologies
   with Zend OPcache v7.0.3, Copyright (c) 1999-2014, by Zend Technologies

DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS"

Updating the PHP version and ubuntu version.

Besides what Derick said, it has nothing to do with this package. As I can't change it to the core's date category, I am closing it.
