The Gordhanian Jobs Knot - Alliance Turbulence Ahead

[iMaverick]

Pravin Gordhan is at it again. He's been smacked around, called all manner of things, been accused of selling out, but this man is not for turning. On Wednesday, Business Day published an opinion piece he's written with another politician, calling for labour market reform. There are all sorts of code words. But, in reality, what's he's calling for is an end to the push just for "decent work". He wants a push to "jobs". As usual, he's right.
