Most smokers 'want to quit but struggle to go without'
The Office for National Statistics report, based on a survey of more than 13,000 people, found 63% of smokers in Britain wanted to quit.
But over half of them find it difficult to go a whole day without smoking.
It comes as the number of people smoking has started to plateau after large falls in the last decades of the 20th century.
Just over a fifth of adults currently smoke - a figure which has only changed slightly in the past 10 years.
It compares to the big fall seen from the 1970s to 1990s when smoking rates fell from nearly a half to under a quarter."
