The extent of London’s health inequalities were laid bare on Monday as figures showed that men in the capital’s deprived boroughs live nearly two years less than they did a decade ago.
Analysis by the Standard reveals that a man born in Newham between 2020 and 2022 will live an average of 20 months fewer compared with 2011 to 2013. It is the most significant drop in life expectancy of any borough in London.
