BT profits tumble 45% as cost cutting swells

However, today's results are better than expected and Ian Livingston, chief executive of BT increased the company's sales target for the year from an expected decline of between 4 per cent and 5 per cent to 3 per cent and 4 per cent.

Finally clear of 140.
