So after years of this beautiful clock keeping time and often not they've solved the problem.. remove the hands.

Update! Have spoken with Islington Council and the clock has recently had renovation work done to it and so the hands are now back (12 May).

These two clocks, on either side of the DLR station (though I suspect they belong to the Canary Wharf buildings they're attached to) managed both to be wrong at the same time. And it's not the first time.

The western (top) and eastern (bottom) clocks.

Yeah I know it's in Paris and Stopped Clocks is a UK thing, but those clocks are magnificent (and stopped) and Parisians know a thing or two about restarting old clocks…
