Makin Sense of Farm Attacks, the Apartheid Bill, Marco Rubio vs South Africa and Trump vs Venezuela

In this clip from Makin Sense, The Common Sense's flagship podcast, the panel got an in-depth report from James Myburgh on the political history behind farm attacks in South Africa, the extent of the problem, and the political forces behind the killings. Frans Cronje reports on a new bill soon to come before Parliament that will look to empower the state to arrest Israel supporters in the country, on comments by the US Secretary of State that pitch Poland against South Africa to explain why the one's economy is a rising and the other's not, on why South African chrome smelters are shutting down, and on why Cyril Ramaphosa is set to remain ANC leader whilst John Steenhuisen may be out of job. Richard Tren reports on America's conflict with Venezuela, whether that government will stand, and why Trump has freed a convicted Honduran drug baron even as he blasts Venezuelan drug boats out of the water. Simon Lincoln-Reader reports from London on just how much trouble the UK is in and why investors are packing up for greener pastures.
