Neil de Beer lambasts “insulting & idiocractic” SA politicians…

Neil De Beer, the President of the United Independent Movement (UIM), turned up to the latest recording of the Sunday Show to deny a viral voice note announcing that he had died at 10pm last night. He goes on, in his customary irrepressible fashion, to lambast top African National Congress (ANC) politicians like Mineral and Petroleum Resources Minister Gwede Mantashe for his failures and excesses; Secretary General Fikile Mbalula for his “insult politics” and that luxury yacht trip to Robben Island. He gives his take on former Springbok coach Pieter De Villiers joining former president Jacob Zuma's MKP, which De Beer describes as “a tyranny of couch potatoes of the people that are rejected by common society”. He speaks about the dark secrets of the Apartheid-era going to the grave with former spy boss Neil Barnard. And he describes how the low standard of education in South Africa is “killing the child's future”.
