BNC#9 | Endres Q&A: Joburg tipping point, MKP succession headache, dwindling ANC vote, and more...

Johannesburg could get its first outright DA majority in living memory, and John Endres thinks that single number, 50 percent, might matter more to South Africa's next twenty years than anything happening in parliament. In this wide-ranging Q&A from BNC#9, the IRR chief executive explains why talent and investment only come back to a broken city once they believe the coalition running it will last, why Jacob Zuma's MK Party is still one succession fight away from falling apart, why South Africa's small business obsession with 18-year-old entrepreneurs is the wrong bet, and why he'd still rather live here than in a Britain he says has traded its freedom for the illusion of safety.
