In 2006, The Lancet Journal published an estimate of 654,965 excess Iraqi deaths related to the war of which 601,027 were caused by violence, leading to the estimate 81,102 of which were innocent children. The population of Iraq in 2003 was 25,175,000. In June 2010, Whitehall released figures estimating the cost of British funding of the Iraq conflict at £9.24bn, and

If I have a parcel delivered I have to drive 4 and a half miles to Gloucester north depot in Brockworth OR I can pay a charge of £1.50 to have the parcel taken to my local post office.
