Please could you give me total deaths for the UK for the following years ?
1999,2000,2001,2002,2003,2004,2005,2006,2007,2008,2009,2010,2011,2012, 2013,2014,2015,2016,2017,2018,2019 and 2020 ?
Rather than any sort of graph or excel spread sheet could you simply write the total deaths for the UK beside each year ?
