The National Assembly last week passed two bills that threaten to push South Africa over the edge: the Expropriation Bill and Land Court Bill. If implemented, the former will let government officials take away private citizens’ property while the latter will put a kind of kangaroo court in charge of dealing with such cases. In this Daily Friend Show Special, IRR Head of Campaigns, Gabriel Crouse speaks to opposition Members of Parliament who opposed these bills; Samantha Graham-Mare (DA), Sanele Zondo (IFP), Wouter Wessels (FF+), and Wayne Thring (ACDP).
Some of the key points they discuss are: What are opposition coalition parties doing to protect property rights?
Can a South African United Front get its act together?
What does Expropriation Without Compensation mean for the economic and political future of South Africa?
