The SA Politics Thread Part 2

Beaumont is looking for trouble again.

The entire problem between DA and ASA on immigration is that DA isn't willing to say "Illegal foreigners are the reason everything is destroyed".

Also implementation:

ASA wants to deal with legislation and borders first, whereas DA wants to focus on fixing Home Affairs and then the other two.

Example:

DA, ActionSA go head-to-head regarding the country's migration system | News24

The DA's head of policy, Gwen Ngwenya, insists the party's proposal for an amnesty period for migrants is vital because of the "dysfunction" caused by the Department of Home Affairs.

Why can't they meet each other in the middle and do everything at once? Close the border, fix home affairs and the legislation?

My thoughts exactly.

Ditso has fallen to the ANC once again. Guess who coalesced with them? The PA of course.

I'm not going to jump the gun on this but it sounds clear to me as if the audio was spliced around 0:36. You can't clearly discern what she's trying to say?

All I get is she's disappointed and frustrated and the Thandeka antie is black and voted in by Indians? Perhaps someone else spots something else or more to this?

So, more of the same **** for the municipality.

PA Will hopefully not have seats in parliament next year.

It’s dawned on me.. elections next year. ANC hopefully can score more own goals this near.

I hope the PA get absolutely wrecked in 2024 in areas where they made gains in 2021. Horrible party. Fortunately for us DA supporters, biggest gains were made typically in DA areas.

Wouldn’t be the first time ASA has tried this stunt against the DA. IIRC they “leaked” audio that was clearly tampered with?

Pretty much.

They'll probably get their one or two seats...

Yup. Can only hope and opp can keep its own goals to 0 or the minimum...

I know, hence my apprehension.

Yup, with the entire Kratos thing in TSH.

Well I’d like the EFF to score a few own goals too.

 

[TheChamp]

Why do you guys hate the PA so much? Surely you don't expect everyone to buy into the DA alliance?

Nah it's cool if they do, I meant more the UF.

It's dumb if you campaign against ANC, but then you coalesce with them? Which is PA's MO?

Gayton declared the other day he'll even coalesce with AWB so long as it gets him and his party to power. Hardly a declaration of principles and determination to serve the people, ey?

Sounds more like you're typical "time to eat" attitude...

Because the ANC is by some distance that most powerful political party and having other parties as allies makes it harder for actual opposition parties to dismiss the ANC from government

I think it's a good idea.

I'd like to add to this that they become accomplices in the ANC's destruction of SA when doing so.

Everyone campaigns against everyone, look at the complicated relationship between ActionSA and the DA.

Funny to hear them talk about undermining democracy, yet that's exactly what they do in their own conferences?

@WizardOfAges Didn't know Potch is under ANC/PA rule. RIP Potch.
