In this edition of the NdB Sunday Show, Chris Steyn speaks to Jacques Taljaard, the newly elected President of the United Independent Movement (UIM), the party founded by the iconic late Neil De Beer. He shares his opinion on the latest developments that Neil would have had a field day commenting on: the mysterious death of former Police Minister Nathi Mthethwa in Paris days after being fingered for the “worst” political interference; Patriotic Alliance (PA) leader Gayton McKenzie forcing the hand of the African National Congress (ANC) by threatening to leave the Government of National Unity (GNU); and the defiance of Economic Freedom Fighters CIC Julius Malema following his criminal conviction on firearms offences. Taljaard also describes the three-fold surge in support experienced by the UIM in recent weeks from people wanting to honour Neil’s legacy. And he shares a previously unseen video of Neil that is guaranteed to make viewers laugh out loud.
