De Beer: Implosion of race hate as SA hits tipping point after Trump’s “dynamite bomb”

In the latest edition of the Sunday Show on BizNews, Neil de Beer, the President of the United Independent Movement, speaks about the “multitude of racial explosions” that has hit South Africa in the wake of Afrikaner farmers being offered refugee status in the US by President Donald Trump, who has also cut off aid to the country. “We have really this week…hit the lowest of the low in 30 years,” De Beer says. He lists some of the “litany of small detonations on a string of pearls of a big dynamite bomb” from Trump: race-based laws, BEE, the BELA and EWC acts and the NHI. De Beer dissects the roles played by the African National Congress, AfriForum, and the Democratic Alliance - and says the shots the DA has been taking the past week, he has “never seen in my lifetime …in politics”. Slamming the “compromised” Government of National Unity (GNU), De Beer charges: “…it seems that in the GNU, you'd rather be popular than take the bloody right decision for 60 million people”. He also gives his take on President Cyril Ramaphosa’s “unfortunate dud” SONA speech; lists those politicians hoping to succeed him, but warns: “…it’s a shocking shame that this country has run out of statesmen or stateswomen”. He concludes with this emotional plea: “I beg the leaders of this country to stop your absolute hogwash, to remember why you are there and to do anything necessary - even if it means that you've got to take the knee…but save this country…”
