Andile and Prince are perhaps the most resented but most effective political analysts we have in the country, can’t think of one I enjoy listening to more. They really come across unbiased but also acutely aware of the inner strengths and weaknesses of the political parties in power today. I’d be very curious to know how they choose vote for, considering how dismal most of them are, wouldn’t be surprised to learn they don’t vote at all.

[@leonarddavids4094]

Don't forget Samkelo Maseko, he's a very sharp political journalist and analyst

[@siZobonaMakeza]

@ absolutely! Samkelo is brilliant, I didn’t mention him in my initial comment because I consider him a specialist of the ANC, his knowledge of ANC internal workings is unparalleled, but that comes at a cost of not being as clear about other parties in isolation, but can communicate great commentary about other parties in relation to the ANC. In my opinion. That’s the sense I get from most of his analyses, not to say he is biased, but I suspect this may be a function of his having direct access to a lot of insider sources in the party and this may also be a result of his role at the SABC, guess someone else may see it differently.

[@thembanimgenu190]

Even in Khayelitsha the ANC is weak, very weak. They should have gone to Mdantsane or in Limpopo where people in empty stomach vote the one starving them. The example of Alex is superb and worse we are told that's where Mashatile comes from

Would also love to know where Swana gets the information that the DA has increased unemployment in the WC the most since 94...

[@sandileswana9426]

The DA started of a very low base of 5% in 1994 and moved to 22%. , 340% increase. That is unbeatable. BER University of Stellenbosch.

[@garethbarry3825]

​@@sandileswana9426a more meaningful statistic would be how much the INCREASE in unemployment in the Western Cape compares to other parts of the country, where unemployment is upwards of 45%. The DA is not at the helm of the levers of government that dictate macroeconomic policy (eg BEE) that hampers growth and makes South Africa unattractive for investment. I say this as someone who is not exactly fond of Steenhuisen and the DA.

[@nomadicleopard]

​​@@sandileswana9426 but doesnt that data form part to the general unemployment crisis of the whole country caused by the ANC's policies? The WHOLE country was less unemployed in 1994.

[@wolfgiesinger1597]

This is how they lie with statistics folks, they simply ignore population growth. Let's say you have a town of 1000 job-seekers, 5% of which are unemployed, so 50 individuals. Assuming an overall growth rate (population and employment)of 20% per decade, you would now have 1200 residents of which 60 are unemployed, still 5%.. BUT if there is an influx of 1000 job-seekers combined with a stagnant economy you would have an unemployment rate of over 50%!! So, while the population has doubled, the unemployment rate has grown by a factor of 10!!!

[@ProcaviaCapensis-ts8ub]

What is far more relevant is that the WC has the lowest unemployment rate in the country by a substantial margin.

[@nomadicleopard]

Sandile, if coloured people are struggling so much under the DA-WC government than why did the DA win the province with majority? White people are also the minority in the WC, so how did this happen?
