The HONEY BADGER of South African politics

Ian Cameron has been called the Honey Badger of South African politics. Facebook banned him for life. He was attacked, beaten with bricks and had to shoot his way out. In this conversation we sit down with DA Member of Parliament Ian Cameron to talk about what actually drives him, his faith, his family, the night he had to defend himself and his colleagues in a violent ambush, and what he really thinks about gun control, digital IDs, farm attacks and the future of South Africa.
