In this episode SMWX dives into two headline-grabbers shaking South African politics this week:
The Democratic Alliance dramatically pulled out of President Ramaphosa’s “National Dialogue”, threatened to block budgets for “corrupt” ANC ministers, and issued an ultimatum after its deputy trade minister was fired. The ANC hit back, saying it won’t be bullied. We unpack what triggered the row, why the DA’s move was more bark than bite, and whether the Government of National Unity can survive the strain.
Former Transnet bosses-turned-MPs Brian Molefe and Siyabonga Gama handed themselves over to the Hawks on 30 June 2025.
