December 7 could be D-Day for land expropriation without compensation

The ANC, which supports the amendments, has 230 MPs, which is not enough to attain the two-thirds majority required for a constitutional amendment. It needs the DA or the EFF to attain this, but both parties have rejected the amendments.
