In message , Brian Watson writes "CJB" wrote in message ... Last Friday week there was a suicide - 'person hit by a train' - at West Drayton on the FGW main line. Now there has been yet another suicide at H&H on Sunday night at about 21.50. Speaking of the 4'th suicide in as many months, John McDonnell MP H&H stated "We need to get everyone around table and examine all possible measures we can take to stop this from happening, because it has got to a point where we can't just stand back." I suppose we can rule out "living in Hayes and Harlington" as a possible cause? There was a TV programme on this only a few months ago and I seem to remember the main reason given was that educated women were being brought over by their families for an arranged marriage with an out of work uneducated layabout husband which caused friction, when the "man" of the family is the head but the woman in the only one with any brains. Distress in the woman being the cause who can't see any other way out of a bad situation. Indeed. They have no local support network, and probably know no-one outside the family. They've probably never heard of the Samaritans, and couldn't return to their family back home as that would lose too much face. |
