and i have to say the anc have been , you know, say the anc have been, you know, i said mandela was a great man and i really, really meant that. but the anc, i'm afraid, have been utterly corrupt. and south africa has gone down the drain under them. and whilst they will still be the biggest party at the next election, i think many of us that want south africa to do well have been praying for a gayton mckenzie type figure to come along. jacob we didn't get a lot there, sadly, from him, but the fact that the anc are going downhill must be good news. must be good news. as you said, it's been enormously corrupt that they even corrupted the internal revenue service to make the collecting of taxes under jacob zuma make the collecting of taxes underjacob zuma harder. under jacob zuma harder. >> it's quite extraordinary how deep set the corruption under the anc has been and has continued to be. and it could be one of the most successful countries. it's got wonderful resources , it's got a good resources, it's got a good infrastructure, it's got the possibility for a thriving economy. i used t
