Wish the sound-quality was a bit better, but Helen Zille really is an amazing person. A mom, a mayor, a journalist and leader of a political party. This woman deserves a lot of respect - she's amazing! Best of all, she's open-minded, believes in freedom of speech and is willing to help our country move forward. I take my hat off to her.

Well, the time has come...The DA moves into a new era. Leon has brought the party here and you will take it forward. Congratulations and best wishes with doing that. You are by far, in my opinion, the strongest and ablest person to do that. What the DA needs, and its not rocket science, is a broader support base. That is the only way politics in this country will be effective. Having a 70% majority party is no good, whether you support them or not. They need to be kept on their toes by the opposition, and this would be easier done with a little more clout. Also, watch Cape Town closely, and don't be wooed by parties pledging support for your dual role. It will be used against you. But furthermore, what do you plan on doing to prevent the ANC from taking power in the farce that is floor-crossing?
Have your say
