Join this discussion with Big Daddy Liberty, IRR Chief Economist Ian Cruickshanks, and IRR analyst Hermann Pretorius as we look at the latest retail numbers, and the shedding of R90 billion in value from the South African bond and equity markets this year. Can we stem this bleeding before it’s too late? We also discuss the ailing mining sector, and deals with militant and violent unionism. Is AMCU looking to embark on another protracted and messy strike?
Join Big Daddy Liberty in discussion with Daily Friend Editor-in-Chief Sara Gon, and IRR analysts Hermann Pretorius & Nicholas Lorimer. We look at the intensified efforts of politicians to centralise power, especially in the National Health Insurance bill, which will dramatically reduce your healthcare options. We also discuss the peculiar case of the University of Cape Town supposedly celebrating academic freedom through an invitation to a speaker who regards academic freedom as 'inhumane', yet himself cited an alleged infringement of his own academic freedom after being fired for anti-Semitic social media comments. Finally, we puzzle over why the government's land advisory panel condones the continued subjugation of rural black women to patriarchal systems which deny them property rights.
