In South Africa, recent anti-migrant protests have sparked debates about populist tactics being employed by various groups. The protests raise questions about the balance between providing jobs for locals and offering refuge to migrants, intensifying the ongoing discourse on immigration policies.

Political figures, including Brink, are now calling on the government to enforce existing immigration laws, highlighting the urgency of addressing public concerns. As tensions rise, the future of migration and its impact on South African society remains a contentious issue.
