Rational Radio - full show: Blocked racing threatens 100 000 jobs; Lockdown logic unpacked by B4SA's Martin Kingston

* Business for South Africa's Martin Kingston - who heads Rothschilds in SA - addresses the tough question about the stifling Level 4 lockdown; why B4SA is calling for a lifting to level 2; and why president Cyril Ramaphosa doesn't trust his fellow citizens to act responsibly.
