[@xinceras-6542]

​@@harisadu8998 You're being deliberately dishonest, and acting as an apologist for the Chinese government. You know very well that in the Chinese government lexicon everything in existence is a "national security matter." Race, ethnicity, religion, and language? National security. Interpersonal relationships? National security. Business ownership and management? National security. Media content? National security. Land ownership? National security.

[@harisadu8998]

​@@xinceras-6542 Let me respond to you honestly and hopefully you will appreciate it. I am not being dishonest. I don't really like the Chinese government and I have no reason to defend them. I'm telling it to you as it is. I put the words "national security" in quotes deliberately because that is something that the Chinese government and the present Hong Kong government calls it. It is not that I agree with them. Many things do fall under national security matters but basically, if you are apolitical, just interested in making a living, life goes on and doesn't change for you. If you are a business that is engaging in political issues, there could be national security issues to deal with. But if you are just a business in the normal course of work, nothing changed for you and the legal system remains the same. What has happened in Hong Kong is chilling and the biggest concern now for many is their children's future and education which looks uncertain and dull. Once again however, if you are settled in life and not interested in politics, your life hasn't changed. Your political rights and political freedoms have been snatched, yes. Economic freedoms however, remain essentially untouched. Now many people can't stand it due to the political aspect and I for one am disappointed by it but the fact remains for many that the economic freedoms in Hong Kong are higher than in many other places. Whether we like it or not, this has happened and the UK has done the right thing to help people. However, just to make it clear, politics is not everything, education is changing (for the worse) and that's important for many people, so they may look for better educational opportunities. The Hong Kong government is tacitly saying to people to enjoy economic freedoms but to shut up about politics. That is essentially the deal. Courts remain impartial for non-political matters. Not everything is political and national security applies to political matters (including secession which is of course legal in the UK as we can see the SNP in parliament), foreign policy and some criminal matters. This is the honest answer I can give you.

[@snakeplissken5480]

the judiciary can be as independant as they want , but that dont help if you just disappear

[@samuelchuathecool]

@@harisadu8998 Everything becomes political when even free newspapers have their assets seized and their operations shut down. The very fact that freedom of speech becomes a national security issue for China whenever they deem it to be at cross-purposes with their narrative is a dangerous sign of an orwellian nightmare to come. I lived in Hong Kong, and it pains me to see people using language that states that national security is a seperate issue from day-to-day-life. People must be careful with how they speak, especially with regards to criticising their government, as when speech is compromised in any form the people lose the ability to feel safe under a government that is supposedly on our side. One must speak in hushed tones and behind closed doors, and the feeling of being monitored and surveyed is all-pervasive. To live in fear of expressing ones opinions extends beyond the political realm and into the realm of human rights violations. So yeah, you could shut up and make your money, but ultimately there is more at stake here.

Not long ago, we had Anne Widdicombe on this same show, did we not? The lady spoke good sense, did she not? She is campaigning for free speech, is she not? Meaning that we should expect channels such as this to afford platforms for those of opposing views, should we not? It's fair enough to disagree with Vince Cable or any of Nigel Farage's guests. Suggesting that they should not be given airtime, however....

@@MS-19, but there's a big difference between free speech and lefty speech !!! is there not.

[@thomasdelaney4898]

I wish we could've had conversations like this during the referendum.

[@importantjohn]

There were quite a few during the referendum period

[@haydentrudgill]

This is why I love this channel. They both clearly disagree on a lot of things but it is nested in civility, good humour and beer. The British way. Very hard to pull that off GB News so well done.

[@johnmandragon4830]

I like Vince Cable. Quiety and calmly destroying Nigel at every juncture.

[@darrenphillips6456]

The trouble is you are conversing with someone who doesn’t know the difference between the truth & a stick of celery.

[@passiveagressive4983]

Oh God why am I liking NF😂😂😂👍🏾. I love this interview series.He has some of the most interesting guests in News bar none . Keep it coming please (says a life long leftie who appreciates varied, non Toxic exchange of views)

[@ShrunkedDude]

Agreed, I'm a leftist but respect Nigel for being honest, Labour and Liberal Democrats are Tories and just lie for their own interests.

Let go Vince. Get back in your box.

The only difference between him & Gorbhachev is that mark on the head.

[@ominousparallel3854]

Failed leader. Lousy reformer. Blew up his party. Yes, sounds about right.

[@Hovercraftltd]

@@ominousparallel3854 that's an hilarious instant image, love it - Cable has not done us much good at all but Gorbachev freed Eastern Europe from communism and ended the Cold War - Maybe he did more for a peaceful world than just about anybody in recent generations?

Vince Cable has still not copped on as to the fact that people who voted leave new what they were doing and out meant out.

[@MrTobycheese]

The people who gave this a thumbs down, I really don't understand you , it's just two people with different options having a conversation and getting there point of view out. Do you want people to have just one point of view. What a terrible world that would be .

Great to see Vince on. Don't agree with him on the EU or China but its good to see a proper political debate not gotcha interviewing. Well done for have a proper debate! Missing so much from the national political programmes on the BBC/ITV/Sky.

[@tarquin4592]

Cable 's biggest achievements was getting a gig on 'Strictly Come Dancing' and proving he couldn't dance for toffee!

[@heliotropezzz333]

Have you noticed how Nigel Farage gets politicians with different viewpoints on his show because he knows that makes for more interesting TV than just listening to a load of whingers agreeing with each other.

[@richard999]

Lovely interview - both excellent bright and thoughtful people and politicians - we could do with more such 👍👍👍
