特區政府決定將立法會選舉押後一年,人大常委會決定現屆立法會全體議員延任一年。全國港澳研究會副會長劉兆佳教授認為,中央對反對派的政策沒有變,反對派要有出路只能做忠誠的反對派,溫和理性的反對派要和激進的攬炒派切割。一起聽聽劉教授怎樣分析。

2020/07/23國安法實施 港平穩向好
香港回歸祖國23年,但基本法第23條遲遲沒有立法,過去大家還未意識到問題,經過去年的修例風波,香港存在的國家安全漏洞逐步凸顯。李家超說,「香港錯了23年,輕視了危害國家安全、特別是『港獨』的行為。」幸好,香港國安法上月底開始實施,香港目前的國安狀況平穩向好發展,危害國家安全的風險降低。

2020/07/14國安法下「二次過渡」不等於「二次回歸」
全國人大常委會直接為香港急立國安法,反映北京對香港形勢嚴重憂慮。一般解讀是,香港回歸後20多年仍未按《基本法》第23條自行立法,構成國安短板。國家安全本屬中央管轄,23條乃起草基本法時的「妥協」安排,特區遲遲不就23條立法,中央不能長等下去,唯有代辦。
