Because I feel the graph is misleading in its title suggesting that mainland Britain has had more than the numbers represent deaths and injuries from terrorist attacks. It uses UK giving the average reader the impression of mainland Britain.

Would be like if I posted a graph of gun deaths/injuries in North America and people might make the assumption that it was more common than is the case in Canada.

Both are strictly correct but very open to misinterpretation.

If your graph was to give context to terrorist injuries and deaths in Britain as opposed to UK then the figures would be much lower
