In the latest edition of Mortality Insights we consider differences in life expectancies across local areas in the UK and various socio-economic groups.

We note the significance of the Platinum Jubilee and look at how life expectancy for females has increased from the 1920s to the 2020s.

We also examine how the pandemic has disproportionately affected people from lower socio-economic backgrounds.
