HUNDREDS of Hampshire staff of tax-payer funded Royal Bank of Scotland are today fearing for their jobs after the Southampton site’s future was put under review.

The blow to the Brunswick Gate base, where 250 people are employed, was tucked away in an announcement that RBS is axing another 3,500 jobs and closing 12 of its business services centres across the UK.

Trade union Unite described the announcement as a “horror story”.
