In this episode, the panel explains the new polling data released by the Institute of Race Relations. They unpack how the findings are in line with the theory that South African public opinion is by and large moderate and sensible. From there the panel turns its attention to the new leader of the DA, Geordin Hill-Lewis. They give a very positive reception to his acceptance speech, but then touch on his harsh commentary about the American admistration, questioning the rationale behind the move. The discussion ends on a new report on the British economy which shows how ideas anthithetical to economic growth overtook British politics.
