The ACDP has strongly condemned a viral video falsely portraying the classified Coloured community in a degrading and incestuous light, calling it racist, defamatory, and rooted in colonial-era stereotypes. The Open Chats team has since issued an apology , which many critics deemed inadequate. Meanwhile, the Patriotic Alliance has opened a criminal case, the DA approached the Human Rights Commission, and civil society has labelled the remarks as hate speech. Elvis Presslin spoke to ACDP leader in Gauteng Bishop Dulton Keith Adams

The Patriotic Alliance says it has laid criminal charges against Open Chats Podcast hosts; Mthokozisi Methula and Sinothando Kama, following their racist remarks aimed at the Coloured community.

The Patriotic Alliance (PA) scored a shock win last night over the Democratic Alliance (DA) in a Paarl in a ward where it got 43% of the vote after getting only 1% there in 2021. Elections analyst Wayne Sussman tells BizNews: “…this means that Gayton McKenzie and the Patriotic Alliance are edging closer and closer to the City of Cape Town. If they can win seats off the DA in the DA stronghold of Mossel Bay, in places like Amstelhof Paarl, what can they do to the Democratic Alliance in the City of Cape Town? So, I would sense that there's great concern for the DA at DA headquarters today.” The PA win came despite the suspension of PA Deputy President Kenny Kunene after he was found at the Sandton home of a murder suspect. Sussman says: “ I think that this will have no impact on the PA in the Western Cape or the Northern Cape or the Eastern Cape. However, in Gauteng, this could present a challenge… …to the PA amongst its Black voters.” In other by-election results, Sussman comments on the African National Congress (ANC) seeing its vote share fall to 37% in a ward in the traditional stronghold of Sebokeng. “So this is major turbulence, major upheaval in a core Gauteng township. And I believe that this basically could be a harbinger of things to come in the next local government elections.”

Donald Trump lashes out with an F-bomb over Israel-Iran ceasefire breaches, sparking global concern. Paul Mashatile faces scrutiny over alleged Lotto licence meddling, while DA youth leaders warn MP Liam Jacobs may regret his defection to the Patriotic Alliance. Finance Minister Godongwana's proposal for full state funding of political parties draws fire from Neil de Beer, calling it “DoF Moment No. 2.”

The shock defection from the Democratic Alliance to the Patriotic Alliance of Liam Jacobs has opened a can of worms. In this interview with BizNews, interim DA Youth Federal Leader Ndipiwe Olayi describes the reasons Jacobs put forward as “really unfair and untrue”. He recalls being with Jacobs the day before he made the announcement when “he was actually celebrating how the DA has been performing”. Olayi notes that in Jacobs's live social media appearance “he was a bit manic - and it was hysterical to be very honest… And I think he will come to regret that decision.” Oyali also outlines what it takes to rise to the highest office in the DA Youth; his own track record in local government; his future politicas aspirations - and the vision of the DA Youth to deal with especially rampant youth unemployment. He has harsh words for the National Youth Development Agency (NYDA) where “board members and individuals that are employed in the structure are employing cronies aligned to the ANC (African National Congress) Youth League. And we find that this billion-ran budget, if not more, because it gets a lot of investment from the private sector as well, it's mismanaged and misused.”

In today's BizNews Briefing, Chief Rabbi Warren Goldstein defends Israel's pre-emptive strike on Iran amid alarming nuclear threats. Iranian-born economist Dr Iraj Abedian warns of a long, bitter conflict ahead. Donald Trump demands Tehran's evacuation as global leaders gather at the G7. Back home, the Patriotic Alliance poaches a young DA MP, and a new poll reveals 70% of South Africans distrust race-based laws.

The Patriotic Alliance (PA) says it has noted what it calls Al Jama-ah's desperate publicity stunt to attempt to open criminal charges against its MPs who travelled to Israel in April this year, with other MPs from the DA and ACDP. The PA says this sets aside how ridiculous this is since no laws were broken during this trip. This comes after AL-JAMAH this week opened a case against 9 MP's who visited Israel in April this year. To discuss this further Elvis Presslin spoke to Leader of AL-JAMAH, Ganief Hendricks....

A delegation from South Africa's Patriotic Alliance is visiting Israel this week on a trip organized by South African Friends of Israel (SAFI).

John Maytham is joined by Daily Maverick Associate Editor Ferial Haffajee to unpack her latest article on South Africa’s coalition government . 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.

GOOD Party Secretary General, Brett Herron says members of parliament who are part of the Government of National Unity seem confused about whether they are members of government or the opposition. Herron says this follows what he describes as a 'secret' trip by members of parliament in the GNU to Israel. He further alleges that the four MP's include two from the Democratic Alliance and another two from the Patriotic Alliance. Herron further questions the motive for the trip considering South Africa's posture in relation to the conflict in Gaza. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to GOOD Party Secretary General, Brett Herron

Political parties have expressed mixed reactions to the postponement of the Budget speech to March 12. The EFF and other opposition parties have criticized the delay, viewing it as a sign of government instability. In contrast, the Patriotic Alliance and the DA have welcomed the postponement, praising Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana for prioritizing the people's interests and preventing a harmful 2% VAT increase. To dissect the unfolding drama, Elvis Presslin spoke to Political analyst, Nkosikhulule Nyembezi

Die leier van die Patriotic Alliance, Gayton McKenzie vra wraak teen die M23-rebelle wat verantwoordelik is vir die dood van 14 soldate van die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Weermag in die Demokratiese Republiek die Kongo. McKenzie het tydens 'n dringende Parlementêre debat sy medelye met die gesneuwelde soldate se naasbestaandes betuig. Hy het lede van die Parlement wat beweer hulle is opperbevelvoerders gekritiseer en daag hulle uit om saam met die soldate te gaan veg:

In a conversation with Alec Hogg, Marius Roodt from the Institute for Race Relations discusses surprising shifts in South Africa's local by-elections. With record-breaking voter support for the DA in Stellenbosch and Emalahleni, and an unexpected win for the Patriotic Alliance in George, these results reveal changing voter loyalties. Roodt delves into the role of proportional representation and its impact on both national and local politics.

Operation Dudula and several political parties are launching a coalition today to protect the township economy and improve health standards. This move comes after a devastating incident in Naledi, Soweto, where six children lost their lives after consuming contaminated snacks from a spaza shop. The coalition aims to safeguard local businesses and community health standards, bringing together key players like Operation Dudula, Patriotic Alliance, and the Ekasi Business Federation. Operation Dudula's Secretary General, Zandile Dabula, spoke to Elvis Presslin to shed more light on this initiative

In this week's episode of the Sunday Show, United Independent Movement (UIM) President Neil de Beer talks about the possibility of the African National Congress (ANC) regaining a majority in 2028 by taking credit for the good work being done in the Government of National Unity (GNU) by ministers, mostly of other parties. However, he also warns the ANC that it risks a “palace revolution” unless it deals with the corruption in its ranks. He referees the latest spat between Democratic Alliance (DA) leader John Steenhuisen and President Cyril Ramaphosa who now has Patriotic Alliance leader Gayton McKenzie jumping to his defence. De Beer talks about the high profile defections of people with “sensitive information” to the MK Party of former President Jacob Zuma, as well as the arrest of his benefactor, the diamond dealer Louis Liebenberg. And he describes the “dismantling” of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) as “the once rising revolutionary replacement of the ANC to something that will just be folding directly into the MK”.

“If South Africa was that hostile towards African immigrants, I would expect that people would stop coming. If South Africa was such a deadly place to be an African national, then why would you still be seeing South Africa top the charts on the lists of immigrants flocking here?” - Makone Maja, Institute of Race Relations Chidimma Adetshina, a 23-year-old model based in Cape Town will be among the ten women who will be hoping to walk away with the Miss SA crown, this Saturday. But her participation has been rejected by some, questioning her nationality. She was born in South Africa to a Nigerian father and a mother who has Mozambican roots. The Patriotic Alliance, a party led by South Africa's Minister of Sport, Arts & Culture, Gayton McKenzie, says it's planning to interdict Chidimma from participating in the contest. But there are many others who've thrown their weight behind the 23-year-old. They include political parties like Rise Mzansi and the Pan Africanist Congress of Azania. Alan Kasujja attempts to find out why this issue is dividing South Africans.

The Gauteng Cabinet is crumbling as the ANC, DA and EFF struggle to see eye-to-eye. Then, starting claims made by the former CEO of VBS Mutual Bank.

Gauteng se premier Panyaza Lesufi kondig laatnag sy nuwe kabinet aan nadat onderhandelinge met die DA om 'n eenheidsregering te vorm vir die laaste keer skipbreuk gely het. Die raad bestaan nou uit sewe ANC--lede en drie lede uit die IVP, Rise Mzanzi en Patriotic Alliance. Intussen is die adjunkpresident en 75 ministers en adjunkministers beëdig - ons vra: Hoe verbonde voel hulle aan daardie eed wat hulle so plegtig afgelê het? eThekwini hoop op 'n stewige toerismemeevaller met die naweek se Durban July-perdewedrenbyeenkoms.

President Cyril Ramaphosa het sy nuwe kabinet aangekondig, wat bestaan uit die 11 politieke partye wat deel is van die regering van nasionale eenheid. Die adjunkpresident bly Paul Mashatile. Sommige sleutelaanstellings sluit in die DA-leier John Steenhuisen as die landbouminister, die Vryheidsfront Plus-leier Pieter Groenewald as die minister van Korrektiewe Dienste, en Enoch Godongwana wat aanbly as minister van Finansies. Terselfdertyd is Gayton Mackenzie, leier van die Patriotic Alliance, die sportminister. Ramaphosa sê die kabinet gee uitvoering aan die kiesers se wil:

Die Suid-Afrikaanse rand het met net meer as 1,5 persent verstewig na die nuwe kabinet in die buurland aangekondig is. Politieke partye in die regering van nasionale eenheid wat ministeries gekry het, sluit in die DA, IVP, Vryheidsfront Plus en Patriotic Alliance. President Cyril Ramaphosa sê die inkomende regering sal voorkeur gee aan vinnige, inklusiewe en volhoubare ekonomiese groei, en om ʼn meer regverdige samelewing te skep deur armoede en ongelykheid aan te spreek.

Old Mutual Investments sê 'n regering van nasionale eenheid wat die navolging van 'n maatskaplike hervormingsagenda balanseer met die aansporing van ekonomiese groei sal steun van die mark kry. Die DA, IVP, Patriotic Alliance en RISE Mzansi het almal aangekondig hulle gaan by die ANC se regering van nasionale eenheid aansluit. Meryl Pick van Old Mutual Investments het aan die SABC gesê hoewel die tydperk 'n verskuiwing van die politieke landskap aandui, het dit die potensiaal om sommige van strukturele kwessies wat Suid-Afrika in die gesig staar, op te los:

Reaksie word ontvang op kommentaar deur president Cyril Ramaphosa wat sê die ANC het reeds samesprekings begin met die DA, EFF, IVP, NFP en die Patriotic Alliance, met die oog op 'n regering van nasionale eenheid. Ramaphosa sê die ANC is van plan om met alle partye te praat en wil ‘n regering van nasionele eenheid vestig. Professor Andre Duvenhage, die bekende politieke ontleder het met Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gepraat.

President Cyril Ramaphosa sê die ANC het reeds samesprekings begin met die DA, EFF, IVP, NFP en die Patriotic Alliance, met die oog op 'n regering van nasionale eenheid. Die party se nasionale uitvoerende komitee het gister vergader. Ramaphosa sê die ANC het met 'n oop gemoed in gesprek met politieke partye getree en is van plan om met alle partye te praat wat 'n verklaarde voorneme het om die belange van die mense te bevorder:

Die ANC glo die verkiesingsuitslag wys Suid-Afrikaners wil hê leiers moet saamwerk. Die party wil graag met alle partye skakel vir 'n regering met eenheid, bestendigheid, transformasie en die beskerming van die demokrasie. Die ANC-woordvoerder Mahlengi Bhengu-Motsiri sê die nasionale werkskomitee hersien verslae oor vergaderings met die IVP, die EFF, die DA en die Patriotic Alliance. Bhengu-Motsiri bevestig hulle het sonder sukses uitgereik na die MK-party.

Patriotic Alliance president Gayton McKenzie believes the business community and global markets are disrespecting the will of SA's people by pushing the ANC into a partnership with the DA. He argues that this is driven by financial motives and a “Save Ramaphosa” agenda - but it is the wrong path for a country that has sent a clear message that it wants the ANC out of power. McKenzie reckons all non-ANC politicians, including Jacob Zuma's MK and the EFF, should unite in a single objective of ejecting the ANC from government, which will cut off its corrupt tentacles whose destructive cadre deployment reaches into every corner of the State. He spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

Among the major stories of Election'24 is a surging Patriotic Alliance, the ten year old political party which will now be sending its first MPs to the National Assembly - and also filling a significant number of seats in provincial parliaments. The PA's strategist Charles Cilliers speaks to us from the Results Operating Centre in Gauteng, sharing insights into the major features of South Africa's surprise-filled National and Provincial Elections. He reckons the over-riding conclusion is that this has been a triumph for SA's young democracy. He spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

With around a fifth of the votes counted, Free Market Foundation CEO David Ansara offers some early conclusions on South Africa's historic Election'24. With the ANC set to lose 60 of its 230 seats (of 400 in total), Jacob Zuma's well funded MK and to a lesser extent the breakout Patriotic Alliance parties disrupting the status quo, the country well on the road to coalition politics. Ansara offers some thoughts on who the partners might be - and explains why Stateproofing is an even more appropriate strategy given the political turbulence which awaits. He spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

After recording just 6 660 votes in the 2019 National election, Patriotic Alliance leader Gayton McKenzie forecasts a massive breakthough in Election'24. The PA leader predicts his party will receive around 1m votes and secure 25 Members of Parliament in the National Assembly. McKenzie believes this will be a watershed with South Africans rejecting the status quo of dominant ANC and DA political parties, punishing both at the polls. He spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

One of the toughest battles in Election'24 is the Democratic Alliance's bid to schieve more than 50% of the Western Cape votes - the only province where it currently governs. South Africa's longest serving member of Paliament, FF+ Chief Whip Dr Corne' Mulder, believes with his party, the Patriotic Alliance and Action SA poised for good showings on May 29, after the election a coalition will be required to govern the Western Cape.

Clement Manyathela speaks to Prof Dirk Kotze, Professor of Political Science at Unisa; Mbhazima Shilowa, a Social Commentator;  Makashule Gana, Chief Organiser Rise Mzansi and Charles Cilliers, the Head of Strategy at the Patriotic Alliance about the comments made by the Democratic Alliance leader, John Steenhuisen about smaller opposition parties being political mercenaries and being a significant threat in the Western Cape.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Following a weekend marked by harsh criticism from Naspers-owned media outlets and disparaging comments from the DA's leader, Patriotic Alliance president Gayton McKenzie is advocating for harmony among opposition parties. The influential political figure points to the irony of this discord between opposition political parties whose prime objective should be unseating the ANC on May 29. Undisturbed by the controversy surrounding his efforts to enlist a DA councillor in its razor-thin majority Saldanha council - citing a ‘leaked' hour-long recorded conversation whose content he firmly stands behind - McKenzie emphasizes the need for opposition leaders to exhibit humility and unite to dethrone the ANC. BizNews' Alec Hogg sat down with McKenzie for an exclusive insight into his perspective - and the surprise offer of an olive branch to his persecutor-in-chief.

In a dynamic dialogue with entrepreneur and [retired] political activist Rob Hersov at BNC#6 in Hermanus, the BizNews favourite delved into the intricacies of South Africa's political landscape and the impending 29 May elections. Hersov emphasised the potential formation of coalitions, foreseeing a delicate balance between the ANC, DA, and Patriotic Alliance. He underlined the paramount importance of protecting property rights to avert economic collapse and also touched on foreign influences, economic strategies, and the role of leadership in advocating for change.

ActionSA leader Herman Mashaba says on-the-ground feedback reflects a very different Election'24 picture to one propagated by incumbents and the media. He points to ActionSA's double digit vote shares in rural by-elections complementing its widely acknowledged strong position in urban areas, especially Soweto where he reckons the party dominates. Mashaba predicts South Africans will punish the chaotic ANC/EFF coalitions; says the DA will lose its Western Cape majority and is making a strategic error shunning the Patriotic Alliance and its leader Gayton McKenzie.

Patriotic Alliance co-founder and strategic advisor Charles Cilliers reckons it's impossible to overstate the importance of Jacob Zuma's re-entry onto the political stage. Cilliers admits he underestimated the impact but says party president Gayton Mackenzie, who knows Zuma well, has long predicted this would be a game changer that will benefit king-making smaller political parties like the PA. We caught up with Cilliers on the campaign trail in the Western Cape, where the PA is confident of a strong showing in two key by-elections this week. He spoke to Alec Hogg, the editor of BizNews.

Can big business really parachute its own candidate into the coming 2024 election and get him elected president? That's the ambition, it seems, behind a bid to find a political home for Roger Jardine as revealed in the Sunday Times last Sunday. There's up to a billion rand to back a new horse but is the circle of possible funder being too picky? “Business needs to cross its own Rubicon,” Freedom Front Plus chief whip Corne Mulder tells Peter Bruce in this gripping edition of Podcasts From the Edge. It needs, he says, to understand the opportunity before it and while putting R1bn into an election. Does all the money get behind Jardine or can all “good” opposition (presumably excluding the EFF) share in it and get behind Jardine when parliament meets to elect a president after the election? Mulder also deals with the need to include the Patriotic Alliance in the Charter before it becomes a “kingmaker” after and wonders whether, just possibly, the Democratic Alliance might be lured into a Grand Coalition with the ANC if the ruling party vote slips below 50%.
