We ask whether successful firms should have a moral mission beyond simply making money. The 大象传媒's business editor Simon Jack talks us through the arguments, with contributions from the chairman of Mars Corporation, Stephen Badger, and the chief executive of Unilever, Alan Jope. We also hear from Matthew Lesh from the Adam Smith Institute, a free market think tank.
Also in the programme, the latest in our series of interviews exploring the economic policies of the UK's main political parties, ahead of next month's general election. Today we hear from Sir Vince Cable, who was leader of the Liberal Democrats until earlier this year.
Plus we meet butcher Danny Lidgate in to hear how his company has been providing Thanksgiving food to American ex-pats in London for the last 30 years.
