Sure, let's do it on excess deaths.
The problem with your first post was choosing other countries (in Europe) with known high rates as comparators.
As above: a fairer table of comparators would help to resolve any disagreement... how about all countries in Europe rather than the highest?

I'm not sure what the argument is about here... but if you put up the data for excess death rates showing the UK and all other countries or similar countries or European countries we'd probably able to resolve it. That would also avoid the obvious problem of cherrypicking comparators post hoc.

I'm WANTING an upgrade but dont know if I NEED an upgrade. I myself weigh about 96kg and wanting an upgrade a bike weight of ideally 9kg, shimano 105 groupset (or similar) and disc brakes. That's about the most I can afford (£1500-£2000).
I do enjoy my current bike. But has anyone been in a similar situation? Or ride a similar spec bike and found significant increase in enjoyment? That's mainly what I'm in cycling for anyways

That is no longer the case. The number of pay points in each band has been reduced and staff members now sit longer on each one, up to 5 years, before moving up to the next.

No I won't be shopping such a store if they hit my city.
As I resist being hooked to a smart phone, refuse to accept on-line banking, contactless shopping and other measures beloved by the impatient types, it won't get my custom.
But would love to know how acceptable it would be to others? MM
