Former DA leader Tony Leon, in his new book, Being There, says DA Federal Executive chair and former party leader Helen Zille may have many positive qualities but that “I doubt the party brand is enhanced by her continued presence at the top of the organisation”. Peter Bruce asks him in this edition of Podcasts from the Edge whether he still believes that and whether he thinks the DA is right to fight to stay in the Government of National Unity despite being the principle cause of failure of the National Treasury's two attempts to increase the rate of VAT. How does it fight coming local and national elections as part of a government run by the ANC?

Die DA sê finansminister Enoch Godongwana se besluit om die BTW-verhoging van 'n 0,5-persentasiepunt te skrap, is ʼn draaipunt in die stryd om Suid-Afrikaners teen ongeregverdigde finansiële laste te beskerm.

Together, they explore three potential scenarios for the country’s Government of National Unity (GNU) – from an uneasy ANC – DA alliance straining under mutual distrust, to a rebooted coalition without the DA that brings in newcomers like ActionSA and Build One South Africa (BOSA), and even a populist partnership with the EFF in the mix.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tshidi Madia, standing in for 702's Clement Manyathela, speaks to Prince Mashele, a political analyst, Professor Kagiso Pooe from the Wits School of Governance, and Lizeka Tandwa, the Digital Politics Editor for TimesLIVE and Sunday Times, about the Government of National Unity's latest announcement. Briefing the media on the outcome of the ANC’s National Working Committee (NWC) on Tuesday, ANC Secretary-General Fikile Mbalula said that the party will "hit the reset button” and start engaging with parties inside and outside the GNU. This is mainly to tackle the impasse over the 2025 budget that has emerged. Negotiations will take place over the next five days. This ‘reset’ does not entail booting the DA from the GNU, or pushing for any specific changes. Subsequently, Mashele, Pooe and Tandwa discuss and ask: What the way forward is for the GNU. Will the 2025 budget be passed? Will there be a reconfiguration? Where do we stand on the VAT increase? "It's been a rather tumultuous time, a time of uncertainty... what we know right now is that the ANC's currently in conversation with its political partners in the GNU and those who supported it from the outside the GNU primarily, Action SA. What's interesting for us is to see what's going to come out of those conversations." - Lizeka Tandwa, Digital Politics Editor - TimesLIVE and Sunday Times "We must keep this in mind and we must never forget that the biggest two components - that is the ANC and DA - are strategic enemies and they are in this government to weaken each other. That is what we must keep in mind all the time when we see all the dramas... that's number one." - Prince Mashele, Political Analyst "What holds this thing together? It was always the key issue which was the weakness of this, and I call it the strategic weakness." - Kagiso Pooe, Professor - Wits School of Governance Thanks for listening!

In a bold keynote address at BNC#7 in Hermanus, South Africa's Minister of Sports, Arts and Culture, Gayton McKenzie, delivered eye-opening predictions about the political landscape leading up to the next elections - providing detailed analyses on the EFF, DA and ANC. McKenzie highlighted the importance of the Government of National Unity to South Africa, and how the coalition is keeping the EFF, MK and particularly "the most popular man in South Africa", Jacob Zuma, out of power. McKenzie shared behind-the-scenes insights into the dealings of the GNU, in particular, working with the DA and ANC. He also unpacked details surrounding the recently announced budget and closed off with some of his achievements so far as a Minister. After his keynote address, Minister Gayton McKenzie joined BizNews founder Alec Hogg for a no-holds-barred Q&A session where he doubled down on his stance against illegal immigration, calling it the "biggest issue facing South Africa" and warned businesses to stop employing undocumented foreigners. He also defended the Government of National Unity (GNU), emphasizing its necessity in countering the rise of Jacob Zuma's MK party. Reflecting on his tenure as Minister of Sports, Arts, and Culture, McKenzie highlighted his push for reforms in sports funding and infrastructure while confirming ambitious plans, including a bid for the 2036 Olympics and bringing Formula 1 back to South Africa. His candid remarks, including unexpected praise for political rival Helen Zille, underscored his belief that pragmatic leadership—rather than party loyalty—is key to South Africa's future.
In this episode of BizNews Briefing, the US ambassador-in-waiting's comments on Sandton Drive renaming picked up internationally; Helen Zille explains why Budget sparked SA's new ‘coalition era'; CEO Dan Marokane addresses misinformation about Eskom being “overstaffed”; Jack Ma, AliBaba rehabilitated by Beijing; BYD; and SpaceX's astronaut rescue.
In the opening address of the seventh BizNews Conference BNC#7, Chairperson of the Federal Council of the Democratic Alliance, Helen Zille, delivered a hard-hitting speech, dissecting the shifting global order and South Africa's precarious position within it. From the rise of geopolitical oligarchs—Trump, Putin, and Xi—to the ANC's foreign policy missteps, Zille laid bare the challenges ahead. She championed the DA's role in the Government of National Unity (GNU) as a necessary bulwark against state collapse, urging South Africans to embrace liberal democracy as the only viable path forward. Following her keynote address, Zille sat down with BizNews founder Alec Hogg to tackle tough questions on coalition politics, the DA's leverage in budget negotiations, and South Africa's foreign policy missteps. She warned of the ANC's devious negotiation tactics, outlined the DA's fight against reckless government spending, and explained why aligning with Iran could have devastating consequences for the country. Addressing concerns from the BNC#7 delegates about the GNU's risks for the DA, Zille made it clear: strategic muscle and principled governance are key to shaping South Africa's future.
In the latest Sunday Show with BizNews, Neil De Beer, the President of the United Independent Movement (UIM), rages about “the ultimate embarrassment and shame” of South Africa's Ambassador Ebrahim Rasool getting expelled from the United States for race-baiting. “… this is while he's sitting in the USA, where he is, no doubt, one of the few people that…needs to calm this American fire that's burning…Well, he just blew it.” De Beer also dissects the speeches of some of the top speakers at the past week's BizNews Conference: He slams Deputy President Paul Mashatile for speaking about fighting corruption with dockets hanging over his own head. “When you speak in that manner, you have to have credibility…Heaven forbid he does become the Number One.” De Beer has rare praise for Sports, Arts and Culture Minister Gayton McKenzie as “one of the loudest flag-wavers” of the Government of National Unity (GNU). “I'll tell you after again seeing him, his speech and his enlightenment of the crowd, I might start to like Gayton McKenzie.” De Beer hails the Democratic Alliance's (DA's) Helen Zille for delivering the payload with her opening address in which she spoke about the challenges of being in the GNU. “But…she echoed many a sentiment: this is the only option that we have.” De Beer also shares his theory that the State's increased “focus” on certain outspoken personalities could have led to billionaire Rob Hersov not coming out “firebrand, accusational and lightning” in his speech as usual. “He nearly became a diplomat…Anti-ANC as always, pro-GNU, but very calm. Maybe a once-in-a-lifetime delivery.”
ActionSA's parliamentary leader, Athol Trollip, has criticized South Africa's foreign policy in a recent National Assembly speech. Meanwhile, at the BNC#7 in Hermanus, Helen Zille addressed the shifting global order, with her speech soon available on BizNewsTv.

Die DA het 'n aansoek teen die onlangs-getekende Onteieningswet by die Wes-Kaapse Hooggeregshof ingedien en beweer dis ongrondwetlik. Die party voer aan die wet bied die regering buitensporige magte om eiendom sonder vergoeding te vat, in 'n stap wat herinner aan grondonteiening tydens apartheid. Die voorsitter van die DA se federale raad, Helen Zille, vra dat die wet nietig verklaar word, met verwysing na onduidelike klousules en die belyning daarvan met die ANC se breër strewe na onteiening sonder vergoeding.

In an exclusive BizNews interview with Bronwyn Nielsen, Helen Zille discusses the DA's legal bid to have the Expropriation Act nullified, citing constitutional and procedural concerns.

Zille also weighs in on the Act's implications for South Africa's international relations, including potential fallout with the U.S. under a Trump administration.

ActionSA beskuldig landbouminister John Steenhuisen daarvan dat hy 'n vloot luukse bloulig-sportnutsvoertuie gebruik, wat elk meer as 1 miljoen Suid-Afrikaanse rand kos. ActionSA-woordvoerder, Dereleen James, sê dit is in stryd met die openbare uitlatings van die federale voorsitter van die DA, Helen Zille, dat hulle nie ten gunste is van bloulig-byvoordele vir enige DA-minister nie. ActionSA kritiseer die uitspattigheid te midde van armoede en sê dit is bewys van 'n verkwistende regering van nasionale eenheid wat byvoordele bo landsburgers se probleme stel.

On this edition of the Sunday Show on BizNews, Neil de Beer, the President of the United Independent Movement, says Deputy President Paul Mashatile - who has reaffirmed government's commitment to expropriation of land without compensation - should be hauled before court on “terrible” charges of corruption; examines the possible reasons behind the dropping of a corruption charge against former Minister of Sports, Arts and Culture Zizi Kodwa and lists several other cases that have been withdrawn - despite “tantamount evidence”. He gives his verdict on the war of words between ActionSA leader Herman Mashaba and political economist Phumlani M. Majozi over social media posts by the latter - and explains why he believes they are both in the wrong. He also vows to get the inside story on an apparently leaked Helen Zille video about “the ANC's manipulation (in GNU negotiations), apparently to keep international relationships and international ministries going because that's where they get most of their stuff”. Furthermore, De Beer comments on the election outcomes in Botswana - where the ruling party was peacefully ousted after 58 years in power - and in Mozambique where unrest has broken out over Frelimo's alleged rigging of the election - amid rumours that Swapo could lose the next election in Namibia.
