Podcast Party Democracy Unplugged

What's happening in the DA?

Loading player...
Is the DA imploding? It would appear so as the Patricia De Lille situation sinks to a new low, and the general public is still left mostly uncertain as to whom is running the show there. Supra Mahumapelo is playing the in and out game, the ANC's situation in the Eastern Cape is becoming nothing short of farcical and the parliamentary joint committee on constitutional review may be extending their deadline around the land ownership review issue. Cosatu, Tom Moyane, Mduduzi Manana and Ramaphosa feeling the heat, get it all here. Brought to you by Nando's. Nando's · The Burning Platform
