An ANC veteran who is also a prominent businessman pulled no punches when he spoke about the ruling party during a memorial lecture for late chief justice Pius Langa.

“It is a dark and dangerous situation when we are ruled by parliamentary votes, rather than principle.”

Langa was known for his measured approach to judgments, said Phosa, explaining that Langa clothed his ‘carefully worded views with a strong measure of ubuntu’ while encouraging his colleagues on the highest bench to ‘do the right thing’.Phosa feels government uses its majority to sweep evidence of wrongdoing under the mat and neglects its duty to ‘do the right thing’.

Phosa said that there is evidence of a deepening gulf between the ‘legislative and executive branches on the one side and the judiciary on the other side’.
