Vince Cable talks about his mother’s mental illness, his father’s racism and overcoming prejudice in a moving and candid interview
You probably don't know that Vince Cable was on Radio 5 Live as the birthday guest on Sunday night because it's not really been reported anywhere. It's worth catching up on it though because it's one of the most open, personal and moving interviews I've heard him give. He's mentioned the racism he and his first wife Olympia faced as a mixed race couple before this.
