Enfield and Barking and Dagenham have been revealed as the London boroughs with the highest proportion of smokers, although overall the capital has the lowest smoking rates in the country.
According to new data by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), smoking rates in London have been steadily declining. However, no borough has yet met the Government’s smoke-free target of fewer than 5 per cent, which is aims to achieve nationwide by 2030.
