The UK is currently sitting in 46th

 

You've failed to format the table properly.
You know what to do.

 

I just made it go blue and pasted it

 

46th is not bad.

No reason to give up yet.

Im sure if it was done by cities Edinburgh would win.

 

could a few of you out that help to improve on that position ? - Irishgreen, you know who I mean.

 

46th is second in League One. The UK can get promoted to the nPower Suicide Championship I reckon. Which not606ers can we drive over the edge to give us a good start?

 

It wouldn t make an aorta of difference to me......

 

With on average around 4-5 more men committing suicide than women, this suggests that women are much more tolerant to the depressing **** that they see every day.

Which helps to explain how supernorwich23 has a girlfriend.

The other way of looking at it is that the women in these men's lives are a factor in them committing suicide.

 

A little tasteless that the emotive and distressing subject of suicid is being discussed like a football league table.

Mind you if England extend Fabio Capello's contract we could find ourselves in the top 10 by 2014

 

Your e couldn't handle the strain of this thread and topped itself.

 

It is not very pacific either, The UK is a little vogue

 

I doubt very much Iran is last. They're not the type to admit their folk may be unhappy.

I'll wager there are a few Iranian women topping themselves and it won't even be acknowledged.

 

You get hanged for committing suicide in Iran

 

Russia is 6th, i would imagine a few are them are murders

 

I believe about 20-30 million Russians comitted suicide under Stalin's rule.

 

I'm surprised the Japs aren't higher in the league. They wee buggers commit hari-kari if there's a mistake in the tea-making ceremony.
