The SA Politics Thread Part 3

Paywalled.

EFF boycotts the national dialogue for coalition governments.
Because it obviously won't suit the model of operation, they don't want anything holding them back when they want to play the DA against each other.

But what will this dialogue lead to though, can it lead to a change in the laws that can respond to the current challenges or is it just something that will depend on the goodwill of parties?

EFF isn't interested in truly governing, they just want to loot...

I think it might lead to a consensus amongst participants and of course, legislation brought before Parliament. That's what I think anyway.

If ANC and everyone else actually find a middle ground, it could lead to actual coalition legislation. Hell, even ANC and others backing the DA's proposed legislation...

From a quick glance at the attendees, ANC, DA, GOOD, VF+, IFP, ASA and VF+ are there.

Almost forgot, I saw Lekota too in the crowd.

Seems like only the DA and ANC back the electoral threshold. Smaller parties oppose this.

It makes sense tha the 2 largest parties back this. Raising the threshold tends to help large parties and hurt small parties.
