2024 is a very historically significant year for our country as we mark 30 years of a hard-earned democracy. The year also takes us to the polls with many new parties emerging and promising all sorts of changes to people’s lives. As we kick off the year, we thought to speak to an editor, an economist and political analyst for them to paint us a picture of where the country is going and what the 2024 political landscape may bring seeing how South Africans feel on the ground about load-shedding, high unemployment, crime and poor service delivery and empty promises.
