The Co-operative Bank plans to cut its branch network by at least 15% by the end of next year, shedding 50 of its 324 branches and large numbers of jobs.

The bank said it would "significantly enhance" its internet and mobile banking services as a result.

The details came as it unveiled its rescue plan, drawn up at the weekend.
