Barratts goes into administration

Barratts Shoes has gone into administration for the third time in four years, putting more than 1,000 jobs at risk.

Directors at the Bradford-based chain were left with no choice after an investor pulled out of a plan to inject £5 million at the end of last week as the company sought to shore up its finances, according to a statement.
