The Ramaphosa and Hellen Zille's GNU has never been a GNU. It was initially meant to become a COALITION between ANC, DA and IFP. But after ANC , Ramaphosa and Fikile Mbalula got exposed that they signed AGREEMENT without understanding, they changed mind regarding their COALITION and disguised it to GNU. They involved other parties, and that is where Zille became annoyed and angry. Hellen Zille thought their AGREEMENT with ANC was going to be a COALITION but shocked to see it turning into something else. Ramaphosa and Fikile tried to do DAMAGE CONTROL by inviting every Party. In the process, they OVERPOPULATED the GNU constitutes. Helle Zille REJECTS this OVERCROWDÈDNESS. It's not WHAT THEY AGREED UPON WITH ANC Ramaphosa .

@sebastianniccals4617 4 күн бұрын

yup, the gnu now has 70% of the vote, they would have been fine with just 60%. this situation is not good for the DA image... but i guess that had to sacrifice their image for the sake of the country. Hats off to them for the commitment to South Africa.

Shahid Bolsen of Middle Nation argues that SA’s election has been sabotaged by means of a “soft coup” and the interests of the private sector for its support of the DA. He argues that the DA is anti-BRICS and pro-Zionism and therefore a threat to the BRICS project. What are your thoughts on his analysis? kzfaq.infopucolyfQ6tk?si=sXyET5Qj6bFwXSxx

Most presenters are picking on the past failures or forecasting a failure of the new government. Help us support the new government and suggest positive ways to succeed. I appreciate your skilful judgements and look forward to you motivating your viewers and the public to support our new government in whatever positive they suggest.

Plus COGTA (municipalities) so that they can score points for the 2026 elections.
