Default Massive Disruption at Paddington - Very Badly Handled Yet Again

In message , at 08:13:21 on Tue, 5
Apr 2011, Graeme Wall remarked:
This is very sad - but why so many at Southall anyway? It does seem to
be a regular occurance.


One theory I've seen is that many of the suicides are Asian women
escaping the torments of arranged marriages.


And for cultural reasons they may well find it much harder to seek help.

Southall, of course, having a large population of British Asians.

"Asian women are three times more likely to commit suicide than the rest
of the population."
