Four in five babies delivered in one NHS hospital were born to foreign mums, official figures reveal.

There were 4,031 births to overseas mums out of the 5,117 arrivals at Northwick Park Hospital in North West London last year.

It is one of 25 maternity units in England where foreign mothers outnumbered UK-born women. Others include Newham University Hospital, East London, where the proportion was 77 per cent, and St Mary’s Hospital in North West London with 71 per cent.

The figures expose the pressures migration is adding to stretched NHS wards, campaigners say.

About 700,000 babies are born in England and Wales each year.

In 2016, more than 28 per cent of these were to women born outside the UK, the highest level on record.
