Helen Zille: DA won’t prop up ANC in Gauteng - ‘play fair or we’re out’

Freshly returned from another bout of high pressure-negotiating, DA Federal Council chair Helen Zille unpacks what’s been going on in negotiations with the ANC on forming a provincial government in Gauteng. In brief: the ANC needs cabinet seats to satisfy its various factions, but the DA refuses to “help the Gauteng ANC fix its own problems” so is demanding a cabinet split reflecting voters’ will. Zille says unless her party it treated fairly, it will return to Gauteng’s opposition benches. Critically, whatever happens in this province has no bearing on deals already struck with the ANC at the national level and in KZN. She spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.
