ANC Communist Party general secretary Blade Nzimande says South Africa’s middle class is trying to discredit the ANC government.

Nzimande told delegates at Cosatu's 11th national congress in Midrand, Johannesburg, that there was a capital crisis in South Africa and even the middle class was starting to feel the pinch.

Nzimande took a swipe at black and white middle class alike saying they should be joining workers in protest. like middle classes around the world, but instead are blaming government for a lack of leadership.

The Congress kicked off yesterday.
