Battle of the sexes: DA releases candidates for elective conference
Loading player...
The DA has announced its candidates for the elective congress at the end of October.
John Steenhuisen and Mbali Ntuli are the only candidates for the party's leadership.
At its recent policy conference, the party resolved to oppose policy that uses race and gender as criterion. This aims to set it apart from the governing ANC which endorses affirmative action as means of addressing the inequalities created by centuries of minority white rule.
So is the country's biggest opposition in sync with reality?
On line is political science lecturer at the University of the Western Cape (UWC), Dr Ralph Mathekga.
