The Bottom Line: Can We Trust Big Business?

BBC Radio 4 - The Bottom Line, The Bottom Line: Can We Trust Big Business?

Is it time to trust big business? Evan Davies asks the former head of BP, Lord Browne.

Evan Davis presents a special edition. With public trust in big business at an all-time low, Evan asks former head of BP Lord Browne, is it as bad as we think?

Business and its place in society is a prominent issue at the moment. Zero hours contracts, executive pay, tax avoidance are all issues where opinion has shifted dramatically. Has Shareholder driven capitalism finally gone too far?
In a special programme recorded at the Royal Academy of Engineering in front of a live audience, Evan Davis talks to the former BP CEO, Lord John Browne on his thoughts about big business as it relates to society. And asks whether it's now time to trust big business?

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
