DA can expect a fight with new Bill

No doubt the ANC will push back - vociferously, we would guess - against the DA's detailed proposal to scrap broad-based black economic empowerment (B-BBEE).

And there are probably two main reasons it would fight to the death to keep the policy in place.

B-BBEE is the key to the ANC's whole programme to transform South Africa and create “a better life for all” for the country's disadvantaged citizens. Without that policy, the party can no longer claim to be the champion of the poor and the oppressed.
