This week on The Bill, Lester and Tara dive into two major stories in South African politics. They discuss the DA's top-up salaries for senior leaders, with some receiving up to R50,000 a month, sparking questions about accountability and transparency. They also explore allegations of links to organised crime against Julius Malema and the EFF, as well as Kenny Kunene's defamation case against the EFF leader. The conversation touches on the erosion of trust in institutions, including the police, and the impact on South African society.
