An ominous announcement from DA leader John Steenhuisen has set South African political media on fire. With speculation running rampant, reports suggest that Steenhuisen may not contest the next DA federal chair election—raising serious questions about the future of the Democratic Alliance, its leadership, and its role inside the GNU.

In this video, I break down what we actually know versus pure media speculation, unpack the financial mismanagement controversies, internal DA power struggles, and why claims that the DA is “doing well” inside the GNU don’t hold up under scrutiny. From BEE enforcement and expropriation rhetoric to economic reality checks like the rand’s sharp decline, this is a hard look at whether the DA has truly become ANC-lite.

We also examine potential successors like Geordin Hill-Lewis and Alan Winde, their public perception problems, and why the DA may be facing a leadership vacuum with no clear or principled alternative waiting in the wings.

With a major announcement scheduled for 10am, this video sets the stage for what could be a defining moment for the DA—and South African politics more broadly.

Topics covered:
John Steenhuisen resignation rumours
DA leadership crisis
Financial scandals and internal DA disputes
The DA’s performance in the GNU
BEE, expropriation, and policy backtracking

Who could lead the DA next—and why it matters
