  • In Part 2 of her Nightcap conversation at the 5th BizNews Conference at Champagne Sports Resort, Democratic Alliance chair Helen Zille shares some Second Level thinking on various topics. Starting with why the Patriotic Alliance demanded Joburg's Economic Development portfolio (and why the DA refused), the real reason why the ANC top brass let Eskom CEO André de Ruyter get hung out to dry, and more riveting insights from this veteran of SA politics as she freewheels on a range of topics. She spoke to Alec Hogg of BizNews.
    TIMESTAMPS.
    00:00 Helen Zille on André De Ruyter's disclosure of suspected criminal activity at Eskom to Pravin Gordhan
    02:29 On how patient South Africans have to be to see change
    05:31 On the inadequacy of the SAPS and how this can be addressed
    07:18 Whether the DA's relationship with Herman Mashaba and Gayton McKenzie can be repaired
    08:14 On economic affairs in Johannesburg
    14:57 On non-racialism
    20:37 On why she returned to politics
    22:26 On TW Johnson's claim that the DA and ANC will never form a coalition as Putin pulls the strings
    25:07 The influence of Russia in South Africa
    27:12 On Mashaba and McKenzie's refusal for ActionSA and the Patriotic Alliance, respectively, to form a coalition with the DA unless she goes

    What I admire about Ma’am Zille is her continued, consistent passion and patriotism for SA! I know politics and politicians are not perfect, but she is one in a few that when speaks , you cannot help but sit back and listen. Wishing you well Ma’am!

Very few people would have put up with what you have tolerated. Good people really stick it out. You are an exception. Thank you for what you have done for the DA and coming back to advise. Please don't leave us now. The DA is the last remaining hope for this beautiful country. As the saying goes...keep doing the right thing right long enough , you get there in the end. I am proud to be associated with your party ever since my grandfather helped form the original Progressive party.

    After watching the two interviews with Helen Zille, I now understand why ASA and PA want her removed. Helen is well researched and presents a well articulated discussion based on facts. This is the type of discussions that needs to be had in SA. Voting based on party loyalty has damaged the country. We need someone with principles and values, and who would not sell SAns to the highest bidder. Helen sounds patriotic and pragmatic.

    Helen Zille has more intelligence and common sense in her little finger that all the Ruling crime syndicate put together By the way, All will come before the Lord God Almighty on Judgement Day They can enjoy their spoils now, but will rot in Hell throughout eternity Our Bible says " Woe to unjust ruler's who oppress the poor"

    I would move back to SA from Aus tomorrow if this lady was voted president. She is a living legend and will never be forgotten in SA!!!
