PLAY the videos. See whether it's big business who runs the place
Lord John Browne of Madingley
Arguably the UK’s top businessman- the quintessential oligarch. He led BP to its highest ever profits and earned a bonus of £900,000, which took his pay and perks up to £7 million.
We met him the week before BP's Gulf of Mexico disaster and shortly before he published his report on University Funding.
The old boy system in business no longer works he claims. But the UK is not run by politicians but by people who get things done.

Sir John Bond
One of the richest people in business in the UK.
Before Vodafone he was chairman of HSBC – one of the biggest banks in the world. He left shortly before the ‘crash’.
Business makes money. Governments don't make money they rely on business for money. Yes business influences government, but it doesn't run the place.
