- Prepare to be uplifted by this interview with Sizwe Mpofu-Walsh, a fresh voice whose direct questioning and articulate commentary consistently ruffles the feathers of SA’s rich and powerful. An Oxford doctorate, award-winning book author, activist, rapper, university lecturer, potential soccer star, now trainee lawyer - creator of the mushrooming new media platform SMWX is clearly living a full life. His secret sauce? Healthy scepticism, a quality in short supply right now as a suddenly adoring media fuels the euphoria of a GNU honeymoon. Mpofu-Walsh spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

thanks Alex for welcoming alternative voices to Biznews! I could have listened to Sizwe for longer. He has many valuable insights to share.
I am a follower of SMWX, love the show. Alec I appreciate your interview style and appreciate you bringing Dr Sizwe Mpofu Walsh on your show.
Biznews meets SMWX 🔥 Thanks for having me on Alec and all the best with this platform.
As a true ‘Man in the Arena’ your approach is inspirational for the next generation…..was such a pleasure engaging. May SMWX continue its deserved exponential growth.
AYEYE doc!
We are a fan SMWX and sometimes come here on BN to check how far and deep they went bias on that day or special development on a topic or development hoping for something different but… that’s a wishful thinking.
But the election definitely did reveal a lot of characters and positions.
Independent Media and Citizen Journalism is way to go, the monopolies existing to date started somewhere and here for support.
All this BN tactics seems like a reality check from a competitor or marker to gauge and redirect… so please Just be carful boss I mean it.
No hard feelings to BN but you know your position.
I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the caption! I’m saying no more🤐. Well done Sizwe and keep doing what you do best on your channel, giving all SAns interested ( not just a few based on likes and dislike ) a voice and aim to educate and unite SA!!! Ayeye!!
@ alec , I hope your channel will one day see the need to interview even those you never invited pre elections 🤔. Well done for inviting SMW anyway!
The ANC is only trying to survive for as long as possible to continue raiding the COOKIE JAR!!!!!
Dr Sizwe is a highly intelligent and inspirational individual. He is my number one 'go to' for current politics in SA. Thank you for interviewing him!
Shout out to Sizwe for appearing on a “right” channel. I’m very glad for his voice I’ve learned a lot about the views of the left “from the horses mouth” on his channel. He is in a unique space to help bridge the gap between the siloed “black” and “white” narratives to get to more realistic and truthful solutions. But it will take courage and strong leadership to not play in only one bubble and create a new better space.
Wonderful to watch Sizwe being interviewed in Biznews. Sizwe has an interesting and captivating aura which screams success. I do hope he could soon sift out the noise and catch his feet.
Brilliant interview Sizwe. 🤙
This guy has a pleasant demeanor and an incisive style but is a major EFF and MK fan.
His view sometime very biased. Affecting his ability of political insight
He is compromised by his father's beliefs. Really biased and impacts his intellectual honesty.
I think it's a target audience that he understands. For all we know, he is a DA voter .
If he is, what's wrong with that? He's not caught up in this whole GNU euphoria
@@Qhawe_Jameson. he predicted this election DA drops and EFF gains supports. Also he didn’t see ANC will choose DA. As a political analyst, he should give some unbiased insight of what is happening and what is going to happen, not let his own personal believe affecting professional judgements.
he is quite correct - the ANC may have lost the elections but they won the negotiations.
they expertly outmanoeuvred the DA..and SA may suffer for it.
High brow grifter. Do a show on what happened in Gauteng my man. The ANC has acted in bad faith. Put a microscope on that with all your intellectual power
ANc won negotiations by disrespect and dishonesty
Lose comments that are not followed up factually. BizNews do a proper research about what happened and it should be clear the party that lost the most in votes and eating at the trough need to protect themselves for prosecution and jail time.
yeah for now they won but next election they surely will not win gauteng , all other parties will blame anc if this country don't improve so again this battle won might make them lose the war
I wouldn't call Gauteng a win.
They're going to struggle to do anything and they'll need to get EFF support to do it.
That is going to come at a cost.
We'll see just how much the ANC has "won" when the municipal elections are held.
Eventhough I believe Dr Sizwe is biased in the analyses on his channel, this convo is a breath of fresh air: 2 people don't have to be on the same side of the political spectrum to have a meaningful conversation. The programmes on his channel I like the most are where he interviews a guest and gives the person due respect to reveal themselvea without it sounding like an interrogation. I do get worried where he does analysis since many times to me it seems too clouded by a left-leaning bias even when the facts show the opposite of his views.
The PHD syndrome on most of the comments is astounding. So what if he is pro MK or EFF? Still doesn't take away his and his family's achievements to get him where he is at such a young age. He is truly an inspiration for most young people struggling to make sense of the two-faced world they live in
His intellect put him on the wrong side..his on the wrong road....will become a looser like his father...loosing court case after court case..
Proffesing to be wise..they have become fools...
@Phillip-oo2ft what makes you think his on the wrong side? People like you are upset because people don't support this government of national confusion already showing cracks from the onset. He has an unbiased opinion.
@Phillip-oo2ft Wena you're suffering from chest pains shem
@@Phillip-oo2ft I bet you don't have a PhD or degree in Law 😢
@@Qhawe_Jameson. name one country where the eff ideology works ? China became capitalist hence the growth so pls one example don't be a fool where ever real socialism is introduced it fails dismally hence the wrong side not one world wide example of a non free economic market where the country is properous
Please interview lady of Concern Citizen
Alex thanks for interviewing DR Walsh. As young as he is he is so intelligent and neutral in all his analysis. I hope he eventually gets involved in politics and take our country to new heights of success. He has the power.
What an intelligent, interesting young man.
Not super sure what I think about Sizwe (there's a lot of baggage associated with the name), but I appreciate BizNews having him on. It means I get more of an insight into how he thinks.
The only analyst that is making a lot of sense.Dr Sizwe Mpofu Walsh
Keeping the fire burning. AYEYE!
Diversity of opinion is so essential to a healthy society .
Was in the same class with Sizwe. Very brilliant young man. Trust me he is aiming for the highest post
SMWX, go on, you have a beautiful clear vision!! 🤓👍
Sizwe is also a good educator peeling layers of knowledge of systems of inequality in the world
Are you forgetting a certain lady "Katlego" of citizen concerned just asking alec
40 years .. is what it will take. As Thabo said, people think the constitution enslaves them, but the constitution keeps us all safe free. And he admits to being with the opposition....
Alec, I think you are also showing some bias here. Who has obtained doctorates from NWU or Fort Hare?
Plenty of Phd's from Fort hare if you care to know.
Thank you ! I enjoy watching both of you and your excellent analysis !
Dr. Sizwe Mpofu - Walsh, leNkosi is ever so insightful 🙏
12:28 I disagree. I think we celebrated that SA did not fall into the hands of radical parties like EFF & MK. The fact that the DA gained more political power was celebratory moment. We have had 30 years of looting and destruction, this was the most positive outcome the country could have chosen.
You must be white or a clever black
You celebrated way too early, there are no permanent friends or enemies in politics. Especially when you have some of the best political strategists in the opposition benches.
200 years of shit ...
"The ANC lost the election, but it has won the negotiations" - sadly so true. I hope there can still be some positive outcomes going forward...
Sizwe is the best political analyst i have been exposed to. This guy is a mature analyst and very laid back. I hope he advances to become The Africsn giant and not just South africa.
Is this the son of the judge?
No,He is a son of a high profile Advocate.
A high profile advocate who has some pretty terrible moments 😂
SMWX is where its at.
My favorite Mpofu...the other one pales in comparison.
Impressive interview.
Watching his channel, I thought I heard sympathy for EFF or MK, but there was non of that here.
I thought he answered the questions in an intelligent, measured and objective manner.
I'll be following his career with interest.
All i can say is this. His father is a terrible man.
It's about time we got the good Dr on! #AYEYE
This Mpofu guy is smart and thinks very smart
Oxford is beautiful ❤🇬🇧
Even this phase that the ANC is going through...when an organization has lost so many quality leaders and they were replaced by not so good one's(cheap brand😂😢)...its normal. We have to blame value building structures inside an organization for that. I think most of the members don't even know ANC policies and history 😮
I still remember when Ramaphosa and his Ramaphoria was the thing and everyone one went with the flow including people who had written books about how a corrupt enterprise the anc had been but for some reason thought Ramaphosa was the saviour from Mars.
Dr Mpofu-Walsh and a very few saw Ramaphosa's impotence as an ANC man tgrough and through which was against the tide and that's he became and Eff and now Eff_Mk because he refuses to be superficial, and ofcourse as expected Ramaphosa and the ANC never disappointed as we were all here in the past six years and saw what happened.
The same will happen with this coalition because this again just a way to conceal the impotence of the ANC and Ramaphosa who have been punished by the electorate but somehow is given some life by coalition partners but hey the DA will never go beyond 21% so if they are to get into national government this is their opportunity 😂
The gameplan can't be about fighting against racism and white oppressors anymore. Most of those have died out
...ANC needs to focus on creating quality structures that educate members on ethical issues, leaders on the ground must have the desire to improve the lives of all South Africans. And thats going to entail getting quality people with moral self-reflection ability. Not the one's who make loud noises and sing on speakers(nothing wrong with that, but you know what I mean).
New phase of the party...Goodluck
Enjoying Dr Sizwe's channel immensely. Listening to a Black perspective has been most enlightening. Especially all his high calibre academic or political guests. I guess being Dali Mpofu's son has its perks.
I hope you will also include Katlego Moagi of citizen concerned!!! You will be surely impressed
I like her except she has a passionate christian bias which tends to constraint open interrogation of global politics.
We are not ashamed to be lovers of Jesus..openly..everywhere..
Look at El Savador!!!!
From most dangerous to the safest country....starting every government meeting with prayer ASKING FOR WISDOM TO GOVERN THE COUNTRY SUCCESFULLY...ZERO TOLERANCE TOWARDS CRIME..
...kalego is a christian...
..all day every day every where...all of us should be like that and follow her excample...BE A CHRISTIAN EVERY DAY...... EVEN IN THE WORLD POLITICS
More people,more disagreement 😥
This young man is mightily impressive. He could save our country in years to come ... jmo.
Sizwe, your balanced voice is appreciated. Keep it up.
Sizwe is the best analyst, unbias and fair.
Spread the Fire 🔥🔥
SMWX
…batting for Papa Bear, unfortunately. An emotional tie to his father’s political ‘project’
No doubt he's a smart guy but he definitely bats for his dad from time to time and understandably so, it's his father and would want to protect the family
SMWX is a daily breakfast for me as guidance and inspiratìon in my work in an important Local Authority....true wisdom and the wayhe breaks down the analytics!!!!!❤
Alec get Mighti Jamie on. Another alternative voice your channel needs to hear.
We never saw this coming… the main battle will be “bias” from both platform fans
Why watch only the DA ministries
I have been following Dr SMW on his channel and find his thinking so erudite and enlightening
What you propose is really great! Don't let anyone ever try to waylay you, ever! 🌿👍🙋☺️💖☘️
They wanna capture you Sizwe. Be careful. This is a WMC instructed interview.
Love this guy’s wisdom at such a young age👌👌

Ayeye!
Yes i think he is the sun of the Judge
MK has won in quantity not in quality ,so where's the sense in that ,so he is quite right about ANC winning through negotiations and that was a strategic move .
Congratulations on your law studies ❤❤
So his going with the Joe Rogan format which is way better than flash news , pumping ads.
❤ You should try meditation and African Spiritualism. Touch base for a change. Origin and future ... fill with fresh paint.
@SMWX 🇿🇦❤️
How do we say Unity without the Mk nor the EFF
Where is the Dr before his name
Don't try capture Sizwe wmc please
His father is Dali Mpofo.
Godfather judge
mxm hes no avid viewer, merely learning from the best
Well spoken Sizwe.. The truth has to be revealed and it can only happen through independent media 👏👏
Keep on being the Devil's Advocate.
Nope. He’s just another woke race hustler. I watched a few of his shows and don’t waste my time on his trash takes anymore.
🤟
This man is biased, he's more aligned to the left wing, the EFF & MK.
All of Us are biased
Some of Us own it.
@@SylerSydSome biases are more harmful than others.
He is left leaning and Biz news is right leaning.
So?
Viva MK.
This man is pro MK.... my problem is not that fact that he likes MK, but that he hypocritical.
That's a white lie
He is neither pro nor anti MK n EFF. His interviews with eminent personalities offer hope by capturing much neglected historical aspects of our contemporary roller coaster politics.
Sizwe, you should use you qualities to tell our youth how they can change our country by voting in a sense able way to grow SA. Drive them away of this rubbish Radical Populists views and cheap rhetoric. Make them understand Economy growth and how to be a positive international player. Go for gold, you are a champion.
He would then work against his father's party's anti-constitutionalist ideology.
He loves the EFF and MK. He is a commie at heart
MK supporter nr 1
If he was neutral he wud b excellent but he is biaised
Are u not biased every one is
7:50min-8.05min. yin lento?🤔
Lol cage rattling sceptic? His channel is nothing but a platform to push the EFF. Alec sometimes is just so naive its mind bending.
Dr Sizwe is great in teaching the young in politics
Dr SMW is a breath of fresh air. A pragmatic, youthful and brilliant mind.
He had major problems at Oxford, being a big 'Rhodes must fall' proponent/advocate while being there on Rhodes scholarship. Dali Mpofu's son.
Pretentious young man,that’s quite anti white.Anti colonialism,while being a beneficiary.
So??
@@MrLechesa
SFW So fucken woke
Dali Jnr has a loooong way to go if he wants to contribute to the Rainbow project.
He is 35 years old and on just that path
He is the "rainbow project".
@@tyronebaloyi9423 Let's hope so, Great potential, SA desperately needs these people to unite!
This conversation has just proven for me how fonie and just fonie Sizwe really is!!!!!! I knew it from the start, but this convo made it clear for me!
How so?
@@realTBG if you watched and listened as well as have listened to his previous recent episodes making it seem as though he is neutral when he is actually not, you would pick it up.
Don't use me to fix your lack of critical listening and understanding ability.
@@Demawi650 twas a simple question, don’t get your panties in a twist
@@realTBGNO my sister his intelligence doesn't comprehend what a simple question is.
Welcome Dr Mphofu ❤❤❤
As a younger, l catched up on politics through Sizwe this year. A lot l did not know.Thanks Dr Mpofu Walch!❤
I keep watching this guy but he really is so on the fence its painful to watch. He needs to stand up and represent something other than an oxford bedsit and a woke professor at tutorials in the UK .
Being on the fence or creating a new side? I’m glad he on this channel because it shows he is willing to upset with his base. But he needs to come up with a unique unbiased view as opposed to living in either the social justice or utilitarian economic bubble.
Rainbow Coalition Party
Such a lovely interview to meet the man behind the political podcast 👏🏻
The genes run deep. His father is a joke. Never wins a case.😮
Dali wins every case in a free judicial environment in which he cannot operate in.
😂😂😂..he is a looser...an eff looser as well...cannot win cases..anywhere
Alex this gentleman is a light weight in every sense of the word. The best I can say is at least he does not let a Weathercock look like sight post like many of his contemporaries
You interview people not to be confrontational? Yeah. That really showed when you did your best to slander Orania. You will have to go a long way to convince me that you're more than just an ANC lapdog.

Unfortunately he is compromised because he is in favour of his father's views. Who himself (Dali Mpofu) is a flip flopper politician for hire to the highest bidder.
Opinion
😂 why are you bitter
No..he is a looser like his father..cannot win court cases. ..
"Dogs only chase moving cars"Big ups Sizwe ,u have stirred up a controversy ,your mission is not to be understood by mid mentality .
The man who wants land expropriated without compensation. Not the smartest cat in the litter..
Is this Dali Mpofu's son?
Yes
Mother is Teresa Oakley-Smith

He's supersmart and a brilliant interviewer. Has a few blindspots, as we all do, but he does it honestly, which is refreshing.
@@mvubu6823Smart but not super. Had he been he would've been able to conceal his bias that bleeds through.
@@Greg16350 everyone has bias - you just showed your own.
He is very rational in his approach to his guests and the topics he deals with.
His analysis has been exceptional during this election crisis.
I wish he would ask his own father about the tens of millions he has milked in legal fees and golden handshakes for the government.
Hes a commie at heart..dont be fooled
Where’s his red beret?
😂😂😂
