Paul Tse: “Playing the Bad Cop” Is Not Hong Kong’s Role; John Lee Has More Experience as a Police Officer—“Sir, You Obviously Can’t Talk Back”
謝偉俊：「做惡狗」非香港角色、李家超做警察經驗較多「阿sir你梗係唔可以窒」
Legislative Council member Paul Tse Wai-chun recently gave a radio interview that prompted considerable discussion in political circles. Speaking freely, Tse said the Legislative Council had shifted from a Westminster model to a National People’s Congress model, with too many uniform voices. He said the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government’s current tone was tougher than that of China’s Foreign Ministry, and believed that “acting as the central government’s enforcer” and “playing the bad dog” was not Hong Kong’s role. He also revisited his remark in the Legislative Council earlier this year that the government was “governing Hong Kong through Xiaohongshu”, while saying he understood that Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu had been more tense at the time because it was shortly before the enactment of Article 23 legislation. He said: “I just think that, ultimately, his experience in politics is not as extensive as his experience as a police officer. I always laugh to myself: as a police officer, sir, you obviously can’t talk back to a sir—of course he would be angry if you talked back to him. But those of us in politics are always confronted and criticised to our faces, and we have to accept opinions. We’re used to it. So it doesn’t really matter to me if he scolds me.”
立法會議員謝偉俊日前接受電台訪問，引起政圈不少迴響。謝偉俊在訪問中暢所欲言，指立法會已由西敏寺變成人大模式，亦太多一致性聲音，指特區政府現時口吻較北京外交部更強硬，認為「幫阿爺做打手」、「做惡狗」並非香港的角色。他更重提年初在立法會指政府「小紅書治港」 ，但體諒行政長官李家超當時正值23條立法前夕較緊張：「我只係覺得佢，始終從政嘅經驗係唔夠佢做警察嘅經驗多，我成日心裡面都笑，警察阿sir 你梗係唔可以窒㗎啦，窒阿sir佢梗係嬲你。但我哋從政嘅，永遠都係兜口兜面鬧你，都要接受意見，我哋呢啲慣咗。所以佢鬧我，我又無乜所謂。」
