Zille's all-male cabinet criticised.

We closed off the show with an interview with Yvette Abrahams - Commissioner from the Commission on Gender Equality. After last weeks announcement that 5 out of the 9 Provinces have female premiers, there was a lot of positivity that women were being recognised in South African politics. But Western Cape Premier Helen Zille’s all-male cabinet has caused an up-roar from various factions. According to the tripartite alliance, the male-dominated executive council announced by the Premier was a "disgrace" and a slap in the face of women. Commissioner Abrahams joined us to discuss this issue, unfortunately our efforts to have the Premier on the show failed; DA spokesperson Ross Van de Linde indicated that this topic is not open for discussion.
