Of course, they’ll blame it on Global Warming.

I wonder how they came up with the 48,000.
People drop dead suddenly all the time. I had two relatives that died from heart attacks while shoveling snow (which is one reason I now hire somebody else for that!). Now did they truly die because of the cold or would they have had their heart attacks anyway?
If somebody dropped dead while gardening on a warm day, was that death caused by it being warm?

Brits don’t have hvac, furnaces or central air. The climate does not justify the expense.

It is estimated that 20,275 Brits more than average died between December 1 and March
An additional 2,000 deaths more than average were expected due to cold conditions between March 23 and 31, this winter’s average death rates show.
even taking this at face value, so which is it ? 48,000 ? or 22,275 ?

I suspect they lump anyone who died of a heart attack into the total.

That’s why so many Brits bought winter homes in Spain.

Oh it’s just “weather”. The “climate” is still getting hotter. Uh-huh.

Cold weather is not a “national tragedy”. Abortion is a “national tragedy”.

Deaths from power cuts due to UK’s insane Global Warmunist energy policies?

Not to mention their wretched health system.
I wonder how many of these victims died whilst waiting to see a practitioner? Or, flat put off the dreaded days long wait to be seen in an “E”R?

Not to be reported under any circumstance. It might lead to wrong-thinking.
To: Telepathic Intruder
They love to report this, so they can blame it on Theresa May and the Tories.
