Indulging in excessive drinking proved fatal for about 9,000 British people in one year alone, a new study has revealed.

According to the critics, 24-hour drinking, bargain booze and binge drinking fuel the crisis.
Among men, the number of deaths went up by 175 from 5,690 in 2009 to 5,865 in 2010, accounting for two-thirds of all UK booze deaths.
But women's drink deaths cut down by 49 from 2,974 to 2,925.
