The ANC and DA are in a deadlock over the key trade, industry and competition department which was taken off the table by Ramaphosa this week. The position has been at the centre of several heated correspondence between the parties in recent days.“It is on a knife edge at the moment. It can really go any way. What we have seen in theis an ultimatum that he would like to put his government in place towards Sunday, and it’s not going to wait for the DA.
“A party which has lost majority pretends as if it has the sort of commanding hubris to be able to tell everyone else what they want to do. It is frankly surprising to me that political parties don’t appear to realise that how they behave exceeds a greater amount of mistrust. A distrust not just in them, but in the institutions of government generally.
