The Nobel Laureate and last white president of South Africa is not happy with the ANC’s “second phase” of transformation:

“We were never consulted about the ANC’s approach to transformation and we do not accept it.These policies – in the ANC’s so called second phase of transition – are overtly directed against South African citizens on the basis of their race. That is unconstitutional and the antithesis of the goal of national reconciliation.”

FW de Klerk made that statement during a speech to mark 20 years of democracy in Cape Town. The former President pointed to the country’s Gini coefficient as evidence to support his claim. South Africa’s Gini coefficient is 0.7, which makes the country one of the most unequal societies in the world. FW ignored the whole apartheid thing that was the boss of when he quoted that figure.

De Klerk  went on, throwing even more  statistic laden punches at the ruling party:

“Not only has inequality increased throughout society, it has also increased within each of our population groups.  Clearly, the government’s policies to promote equality have failed.
