As administrators move in on the 114 BHS branches still open, thousands of loyal staff face being made redundant.

Today former owner Sir Philip Green was branded 'the unacceptable face of capitalism' by a Department of Work and Pensions and Business Committees report.

The tycoon was accused of systematically extracting "hundreds of millions of pounds" out of BHS, leaving its pension fund in deficit, before flogging it to “incompetent and self-serving chancer” Dominic Chappell.

Now more than 11,000 employees are on course to lose their jobs following the collapse of the British department store in April.

The financial advisory firm is due to close down a further 30 branches on July 30, shattering the lives of another 700 members of staff.
