DA, EFF join forces to fight VAT hike in court

JOHANNESBURG - Two of the country’s biggest rivals, the DA and EFF, are coming together – not to settle their differences, but to take on the ANC’s VAT hike. 

With the case heading to court, Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana isn’t sweating it, and says the fight might be too little, too late.  

But what does this legal showdown mean for South Africa’s economy, and could the outcome affect the average taxpayer?

Economist Dr Iraj Abedian weighs in.
