Bell Pottinger personifies the smiling face of corporate evil

BELL Pottinger, the UK PR company which was paid to whitewash the Guptas and their ghastly shenanigans, is currently under fire for using unethical tactics to divert attention from Zuma and the state capture issue.

They deserve the flak they are getting, but they are not alone.

The cynicism behind the campaign is unspeakable: what are two issues guaranteed to grab the attention in our historically fractured nation? Racism and economic inequality.
