5,000 jobs to go at NTL

Cable company NTL will tomorrow announce a jobs cull, axing almost a third of its British workforce as it pushes for £250m in annual cost savings from its £3.4bn merger with rival Telewest.

Around 5,000 jobs are expected to go from the combined company's workforce of 17,000 over the next few years.
