Without a doubt. Instead of trying to outperform the DA, they try to destroy people working to fix the problems.

Government grants and hand-outs are the road to ruin. If & when SASSA defaults, millions of people will go hungry and chaos will ensue. We already see the unfair tax regime steadily falling behind what is needed for a state that should be much smaller.

@Ian Williams. You only call " government grants the road to ruin" if you have no realisation that, the world over, governments pay "grants" to their citizens who have been taxpayers all their lives. To land in old age, through circumstances not always of one's own making, in a situation where you have to apply for an "older persons grant" (less than R2000pm) is not a handout but fair after paying your dues during your working life. The real shame are on those citizens who lie about their income and disguise their assets to receive a older person grant when they could sell assets to support themselves. They rob those who really are indigent old people. As far as disability grant goes, it is disgusting how little disabled people receive from the government in this country when there are not enough facilities where disabled people can earn a living. I do have a problem with certain child grants and think it is rewarding teenage pregnancies, but then, isn't that what ANC want, social engineering in a way. As far as the R350 goes, it is too little to actually help anyone survive and I think that it can be abused by dishonest people, who have never paid income tax. Food stamps would be more targeted. If a government is not stealing taxpayers money, then grants won't ruin the economy.

Helen is a most amazing Lady and person.

Very pragmatic and level headed. Excellent politician. South Africans must be proud regardless which political party they support.

I could listen to Helen all day, she makes so much sense, she is the best in this country!

She is a treasure to South Africa

Zille speaks with the weight of common sense. However I have much doubt of ANC being out of power in 2024, no matter how much sense it makes. TIA!

Very good

It seems like when ActionSA is not taking on board former disgruntled DA members, then it is taking on some former dodgy ANC cadres. It appears that the honeymoon period is over for the party in the eyes of the electorate. Why is it not looking to new talent elsewhere, or is this the best that it can attract..

Romney is so quiet about his former employer Bain .....Romney is a disgrace to American politics

Helen for president.

Thank you DA Elections in 22 months Vote for coalition gowerment

What a question to ask if the government shouldn’t be informed about Bain and its corruption. It’s a question of values. We’ve seen hundreds of incidences of corruption and behaviour where ANC politicians have done the most unbelievable things - in Britain they’d be out on their ears. In South Africa they get promoted and deployed.

Us in Mkhondo (Piet Retief) Mpumalanga just saw how terrible a independent candidate can be. Just as bad as the ANC, got us into R200 million debt with eskom but still managed to buy up tons of property in the town for himself.

Viva DA viva

USA: “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses - I will make them into a superpower". ANC: “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses - I will make them miss the prosperity of Zimbabwe"

How i wish Hellen was our president. This country could've been a better place than what it is now. Most of 'political analysts' hate her because she's smarter than them. They just hate her colour, competence and hands-on approach in whatever she does.

DA's "DA get things done " campaign is really needed in North-West especially the western part, which has turned to be extremely impoverished, dry and in tatters

Very good 👍

I can't help wondering how it helps to "hold their feet to the fire" because as Zille said, there are a whole range of companies involved in state capture. Clearly holding feet to the fire served very little purpose.

What is your alternative proposition?

Highly intelligent and articulate.

As good as she can speak she a big reason why so many people lost hope in DA after her TV interview few years ago, many black people stopped support DA because of what she said in the interview

They say democracy is not perfect, but it is by far the best form of government available today. Also, the DA may not be perfect, but its by far the best viable alternative to the ANC. We don’t know which ANC is going to pitch up at the election in 2024. Their elective conference later this year may give us clues. I believe the party unity that CR have tried to forge (and sold his soul and principles for), is largely a myth now. So, either of a few things can happen: - If the RET faction and ‘Taliban’ of KZN can somehow put forward a candidate that can achieve a majority (by whatever means possible), that is likely to be the end of the party. The large core of thinking and principled supporters left in the movement will rather abstain than throw in their lot with the horrors this may bring. - Another possibility is that CR or a likeminded candidate wins the candidacy for president. The other faction will only up its efforts to undermine him/her, which they are doing already, relentlessly. Will they vote for this candidate? It remains to be seen. Whatever happens, expect a great many supporters to abstain or switch their support. In both these outcomes I will be surprised if the ANC gets more than 30%. So even in coalition with the EFF, democracy should be safe. Ms Zille is right, even if the ANC lose their majority in 2024 its still going to be an uphill struggle for the good people of SA. We have seen in the WC, in Tshwane and recently in Umngeni the spoiler tactics they make use of. Something else, the large army of cadre deployees will still be in place. Are they suddenly, magically going to support a new coalition government? Also, the harm that will be caused if legislation such as EEB, more BEE, EWC gets passed before 2024 is immense. They should be delayed at all costs. There are two large blocks of voters waiting to be captured by the right party. That of the youth that thus far have not seen party politics as a solution to their dire situation. And that of the disillusioned ex-ANC supporters who will not vote for the ANC anymore and have not found other parties on offer attractive enough. Here lies the rub, who can attract those? Only time will tell.

You points are very accurate. The cadres are destroying the anc and all we have to do is watch as they kick themselves out of power. Gauteng is definitely not going to be run by the anc anymore and since other provinces will be looking to see how well it does in the coming years they'll use Gauteng as a guage of weather or not to vote for the DA and Action SA
