My Bottom Line: Heather McGregor, Taylor Bennett

Heather McGregor is managing director of the head-hunters Taylor Bennett.

Heather says she is frustrated at the way the British government interferes with the running of businesses - especially banks which have received bailout funds.

Heather says the government, as a major shareholder, should engage with company management via the established routes open to shareholders but instead she feels it makes demands in reaction to populist pressure generated by newspapers.

Heather appeared on The Bottom Line which is broadcast on BBC Radio 4 and BBC World Service. Subscribe to the podcast or watch it on the BBC News Channel.
