Premium: Time to pause for those on the well-worn relocation path from SA to the UK

Click here). .___STEADY_PAYWALL___.Britain is the most popular destination for relocating South Africans. And there have been far too many of those over the past few years as ANC corruption, incompetence and racism has pushed skilled Saffers to seek greener pastures. But all tides eventually turn. And this one looks to be doing so right now..Whatever its longer-term benefits, the short-term pain of Brexit are becoming increasingly evident to the UK economy. The Bank of England yesterday raised interest rates by the most in 27 years. Worse, it warned of the about very real prospect of stagflation –high inflation with zero economic growth. Clearly, the UK's appeal is on the wane..On the other hand, South Africans can look forward to the very real prospect of removing the dead hand of the ANC from their long-stalled economy. The trend from by-elections supports the prospect of this dysfunctional ruling party drawing well below 50% of the vote in the 2024 National Election. As Helen Zille warned, being governed by a coalition won't be a cake walk. But it is sure to be far better than our current cadre-deployed chaos. .All this should give pause to anyone considering the well-worn route of abandoning SA for the UK. Or at the very least, encourage them to put those plans on hold for the next two years. Roll on 2024..WATCH: Successful entrepreneur turned political leader Herman Mashaba is hard at work building structures and putting together the personnel to make Action SA a major force in South Africa's 2024 National Election. The party has appointed provincial leaders in six of the country's nine provinces and promises to fill the other three posts by yearend. Mashaba says results of the three by-elections it has contested since its surprising strong showing in the November 2021 Local Elections support the assertion that his party is gathering momentum. During this interview with Alec Hogg of Biznews, the unlikely politician explains his approach to other political parties that are likely to be allies in ruling coalitions and shares how he sees the transformation of SA's political landscape after the ANC's expected loss of power in the 2024's National Election..More for you to read today: .Bank of England Makes Biggest Rate Rise Since 1995 as Inflation Soars.
