Daily briefing (afternoon) — Monday, 1 June 2026

Talk radio on 1 June was dominated by accountability politics: the Madlanga Commission's return after submitting its second interim report, and the historic first sitting of Parliament's impeachment committee against President Ramaphosa. Running alongside were the embarrassing Bafana Bafana visa bungle on the eve of the World Cup, fresh tender-corruption charges against former Ekurhuleni city manager Imogen Mashazi, and a SARS shift to digital border processing. Stations also dwelled on cost-of-living pain, with petrol up and diesel down from Wednesday.
