    Northern Ireland Boasts Best Wellbeing in UK: Gallup Poll

    WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Residents of Northern Ireland have higher overall wellbeing than those in England, Scotland, or Wales, according to Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index data from 2011. Wales had the lowest overall wellbeing score.

    These findings are based on 12,800 interviews conducted from January through December 2011 with adults aged 18 and older in England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

    The Well-Being Index is composed of six sub-indexes that include 55 individual items that collectively measure the physical, emotional, and fiscal wellbeing of residents in the UK.

    Northern Ireland's higher overall wellbeing is due to its better life ratings, work environment perceptions, and access to basic necessities. However, the country stands out the most on the Work Environment Index, which is of particular note, as this is a wellbeing weakness of the UK in general.

    Here's something for you to investigate. How many active threads have you killed off tonight? Take a look at the thread list - how many of them have "last post - Mickeymac?" Smart enough to draw any conclusions?
