Zero Carbon Under Attack 11:34

2y ago11:34

11:34

Zero Carbon is one of the rare areas of consensus in British politics. Boris Johnson seems no less committed than then opposition parties. But energy security concerns now take centre stage. More serious, public support is shallow and politicians have been unable to resist popular demands to cut taxes on fuels. There is now an emerging movement dem…

Inflation, Inflation, Inflation 12:00

2y ago12:00

12:00

The podcast is a look back at the Spring Statement now that the dust has settled and we have a chance to look at reactions as well as the content. A generous view is that Sunak is saving his ammunition for a fiercer economic battle in the autumn but he runs the risk of doing too little too late.

Ukraine War: Watch the Neutrals 15:57

2y ago15:57

15:57

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has mobilised and unified Europe, the NATO alliance and the majority of countries in the UN. However key countries like India and Pakistan, South Africa and Nigeria and leading Middle Eastern countries and, above all, China have declined to take sides, at least openly. How these self-declared neutrals react to a cont…

European War or WW3 20:06

20:06

I look at the likelihood of the conflict spreading beyond the Russian invasion of Ukraine. And in particular the unpredictable consequences of the widening sanctions net and the impact of the war on energy and food supplies.

10 Things We Got wrong About Russia 15:25

2y ago15:25

15:25

This podcast deals with the horrific invasion of Ukraine by Putin’s Russia; the mistakes that were made which have contributed to the war and the lessons to be learnt. Now there are key issues to be faced. Sanctions will not work if they exclude the energy sector. We have to engage countries like India and China with close links to Russia. We have …

The Economic Consequences of a European War 19:29

2y ago19:29

19:29

In this week's episode, I look at the extreme uncertainty around Russia’s intentions in relation to Ukraine, have focussed mainly on the military consequences of an invasion. There would also be an economic shock through energy and other commodity markets. We have the two oil shocks of 1974 and 1980 as a precedent. There are also potential wider im…

The Beijing Olympics and the New Cold War 16:21

2y ago16:21

16:21

This week's episode deals with Chinese objectives and the Western diplomatic boycott which has so far failed in its objective to make human rights particularly in Xinjiang the focus of the Games. Link to article: https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/beijing-olympics-boycott-human-rights-b2010135.html#comments-area Sir Vince Cable is the former lead…

Political populism what and why 15:30

2y ago15:30

15:30

It has become common-place to talk about ‘populism’; but what does it mean? And what is the reason why otherwise seemingly stable democracies throw ups the likes of Trump and Johnson? I draw on some recent analysis using data science which challenges some fashionable ideas: that populism originates in inequality or as a response to immigration. Lin…

It's the economy stupid 19:35

2+ y ago19:35

19:35

Clinton's campaigning slogan seems out of place amidst the political chatter about partygate and the rumblings about war in Ukraine. But the government's credibility hinges on economic performance. There are worrying trends: a slowdown in post covid recovery and rising inflation which has been underestimated. Sir Vince Cable is the former leader of…

Democracy in danger. 17:51

2+ y ago17:51

17:51

Democracy is in danger on several fronts: internally, in the USA especially, with the refusal of the Republican Party to accept the results of elections; globally with a slide to semi-democratic, semi-authoritarian regimes in many countries; and physically with the threatened Russian attack on Ukraine. I discuss the prospects for President Biden’s …

There is a problem with ‘levelling up’ 19:24

2+ y ago19:24

19:24

I discuss the choices and dilemmas the government faces in launching its ‘levelling up’ White Paper on its signature policy: badly delayed and due early this year. The key choice is whether to prioritise left-behind people or places. The government seems primarily concerned with the latter and, within the latter, towns rather than cities. Sir Vince…

Is there a risk of war? 21:28

2+ y ago21:28

21:28

The big foreign policy event in 2021 was the US retreat from Afghanistan: the end of a long, unwinnable, war. But we should ask if this is a temporary withdrawal from conflict that will reappear elsewhere. I look at the three main candidates for conflict involving big powers: Ukraine, with Russian troops currently massing on the frontiers; Iran, wi…

Is there really a shift going on in UK politics? 29:34

2+ y ago29:34

29:34

I look at whether anything has fundamentally changed politically in the UK after the deteriorating support for the Johnson government, the emergence of consistent Labour leads and the trouncing of the Conservative candidate by the Liberal Democrat in the North Shropshire by-election. Vince’s new book ‘The Chinese Conundrum: Engagement or Conflict’ …

What to do about the Unvaccinated? 22:40

2+ y ago22:40

22:40

In the public debate about how to deal with the Omicron variant of Covid, few are confronting the uncomfortable fact that much of the negative impact, in terms of hospital admissions and transmission, can be traced back to the minority who refuse to be vaccinated. I review the options amongst which come a kind of passport for the vaccinated and tes…

I return to the Henley Festival to discuss my latest book, The Chinese Conundrum: Engagement or Economic War. The book takes in the recent Covid-19 pandemic and election of US president Joe Biden, as it explores the relationship between China and the West. By looking at the history of the politics between these nations, the economy and global polit…

What are Britain’s interests in China? 34:26

2+ y ago34:26

34:26

Britain, five years ago, enjoyed a ‘golden era’ of relations with China. A whole series of events to do with Huawei, Hong Kong and the emphasis of the Trump and Biden US administrations on ‘containment’ and ‘confrontation’ in relation to China have shifted the balance to one of greater suspicion and disengagement. Brexit has also distanced the UK f…

Future scenarios for China 34:52

2+ y ago34:52

34:52

China’s past has been marked by sudden changes of direction under Mao and then under reformists and now Xi. Where is China going? Predictions are likely to be very wide of the mark. Can we use scenario techniques to help prepare for what might happen in China and in China’s relationships with the world. I interview Cho Khong who has just left Shell…

China’s Economic Challenges 1:10:19

2+ y ago1:10:19

1:10:19

China has become a superpower through its extraordinary economic growth over four decades. It has developed a model of ’state capitalism’ which has combined the strengths of both state ownership and control alongside capitalism in much of the economy. It now faces serious challenges: demographic ageing; an over reliance on investment; a big stock o…

Isabel Hilton is a noted journalist with long experience of China. Her particular interest is in environment policy and with the COP conference in Glasgow to come shortly she gives her assessment of where China stands on climate change. China is the world’s biggest emitter of greenhouse gasses and has a heavy dependence on coal burning; but it also…

38:48

In this episode I talk to Professor Kerry Brown who is internationally recognised as a leading authority on Chinese politics. His books on the Chinese Communist Party and on the politics of President Xi are seminal works. He explains how the Chinese 'party state’ operates and how Xi has not just assumed powers unmatched since Mao but reinstated the…

Trailer: The China Conundrum 2:01

2:01

China’s relationship with the West has deteriorated rapidly and become toxic with China portrayed as a ’threat’ through Chinese competition in trade and technology, assertiveness abroad and growing military strength and bitter disagreements on ‘human rights’ issues. Why has this happened and is the perception of China as a threat justified? There i…

Money & Power: Book Talk at Hay Festival 52:25

52:25

In this special episode, I’m on stage at the Hay Festival, talking about my latest book ‘Money & Power’. Through economics, our politicians have the power to transform people's lives for better or worse. Think Deng Xiaoping who lifted millions out of poverty by opening up China; Franklin D Roosevelt whose 'New Deal' helped the USA break free of the…

In this episode I discuss the trends taking place in business - such as more and more advanced technology - and how these are changing the demand for workers, especially young workers joining the labour force for the first time. I discuss this with Lord Tim Clement-Jones who has devoted a lot of thought to the issue of digitisation of work; and wit…

Life does not look rosy for many young people. In a series of three podcasts, Vince Cable interviews experts in education and business to understand the damage covid has done to their prospects.
