The amount of time from sunrise to sunset along the latitude where you are is the same as the amount of time from sunset to sunrise along the same latitude in the other hemisphere. For example, if you're in London, which is at 51.5° north latitude, and you had 8 hours and 16 minutes of sun today, every other point along 51.5° north latitude had about 8 hours and 16 minutes of sun today, and every point along 51.5° south latitude (where it's the opposite season) had about 15 hours and 44 minutes (24:00 - 8:16) of sun today.
