High Peak Liberal Democrats
Vince Cable went to Edinburgh on his tour of the country taking questions from members.For 90 minutes, he answered questions on such varying subjects as tackling extremism, Brexit, freedom of movement, the triple lock, opportunities for young people and the fight against climate change.
He was particularly strong on tackling inter-generational unfairness, social justice and reducing inequality as top priorities.
He talked about the need to curb some of the privileges pensioners get - such as wealthier people over state pension age who are still earning not paying National Insurance. He said it was important to maintain the triple lock, though, because we don't want to go back to the days when so many pensioners lived in poverty.
Watch most of it in the next two video clips. Don't be put off by the sound interference at the beginning of the first one. It sorts itself out in about two mnutes.
