Title: People killed or just die .............
Post by: SydneyRover on November 04, 2025, 01:17:12 am
For general information just something to think about, not trying to defend or blame anyone here.

On Average in the UK:

670,000 people die each year for various reasons.

1600 from traffic accidents.

3 or 4 from dog attacks.

125 work related.

5000 from asbestos related diseases.

75-100 women are killed each year by their partners or ex-partners.

500+ each year by homicide which will of course include some of the above.

1700-22,000 estimate each year to avoidable medical mistakes such as adverse drug reaction etc.

This isn't a definitive list nor I would think 100% accurate and it doesn't include injury.

Feel free to dig deeper and correct or add any information.

I just want to show any that are thinking the place is a shithole or want to opt out they are likely in a minority and where better choices can be made.

Christ that's interesting stuff Sydney.

Having travelled around the Far East a bit, eastern Europe and South America a lot, I am 100% convinced that absolutely every single person in all of those places would be delighted to live in a place with those stats. Equally, they would all also love even a quarter of the social support available in Britain today.

Interesting OP Syd.
But an ironic last paragraph given that you left the country because you thought thought that the UK “was done” and was a shithole.

There’s around 7,000 deaths by suicide each year, nearly 20 every day. That’s absolutely shocking. I hope everyone here is ok and knows how to seek help and to talk to someone if they need to.

And this is a problem that disproportionately effects males, with the highest risk group being those aged 50-54.

Sadly, mental health services are utterly broken.

Feel like the dog attacks stat may be off the mark. Seems to be every other week you hear about someone being killed by a dog.

The proof is right there in that last sentence. Telling people not to do something that you did.

Hypocrite.

Unfortunately, your word is not an acceptable level of proof, aye  scawsby, if you could prove it you could collect £25k or lose £12k.

I'll give you a week if you have the balls, show me you're not chicken little, go on just do it.

Thank you Sydney. I confess my initial thought about it was that it was some kind of juvenile jibe, but then I wondered if, perhaps, I had led a too sheltered existence and it was something of significance, an important reference of which I was unaware. The responses to my last post amply demonstrate which of my thoughts was correct...
