Defend Truth

Richard Calland & Lawson Naidoo

When Richard Calland is not thinking about The Arsenal, who he has supported for 38 years, he teaches a bit of constitutional law at UCT and occasionally comments on politics. His most recent book - The Zuma Years: South Africa's Changing Face of Power - created a nice little fuss because of its claim that President Zuma doesn't read (the things he ought to). Naidoo and Calland run the famous Spin Doctors Cricket Club. Lawson Naidoo, an Everton fan for over 40 years, has far too many friends who support The Arsenal. The location of the ANC London office in Islington, where he was based in the late 1980s, resulted in occasional visits to Highbury. Lawson is now with constitutional NGO, CASAC.
