That is not how it is going to be spun. As @TheChamp says, the DA could learn from ASA when it comes to spin.

Have you seen the comments? Spin only works if lots if people believe it. Problem for AuctionSA is of the minimal support that they have, most of it is from ex-DA supporters who aren't as easily fooled as other segments of the electorate by the statements of politicians.

 

[TheChamp]

This oke should be taken to court for lying.

Lying about what? He saw right through the DA's attempt to use VAT to try and strong arm the ANC into accepting their demands. ActionSA are going to be a very valuable member of the GNU.

The DA could learn a lot of things, but on this one they will learn that it is not wise to try and corner a Buffalo, that thing is dangerous.

What's the plan to plug the deficit if they withdraw vat?

This is the big question.

For the anc yes.. They have your same DA bad mentality Uber alles.

This is the big question.

I am sure they are keeping the bracket creep tax, plus the extra 10 billon they collected last year.

But the assumptions around the GDP growing at 2% this year is never going to happen.

So from this article https://www.moneyweb.co.za/in-depth/budget/godongwana-caves-vat-hike-canned/

"Meanwhile, National Treasury said that parliament “will be requested to adjust expenditure in a manner that ensures that the loss of revenue does not harm South Africa’s fiscal sustainability”"

Lol. The ANC caved to DA and EFF pressure from the court case. Deal with it.

The ASA is ANC-lite and you know it. They just want to get on the looting train along with their masters

No, they are not, they are an opposition party that has realised we have one common enemy to progress, and that is the DA.

The povo that vote do not comment on X posts.

That's the reason the DA wins polls and not elections.

Oops...SABC reporter showing her bias again. Not surprising.

Not in the case of AuctionSA supporters who are not the rural landless masses...

Well done to CIC & DA for this victory on VAT. Are we going to see EFF & DA merge soon ?
