Media
Every week we reach hundreds of thousands of people through placing arguments in the media in support of the principles we stand for. No other advocacy group in the country does as much as we do to promote support for policies that defend your right, and that of your community, to make decisions about your own life free from counter-productive government interference.

14 June 2018 - The fact that the consultation period is so short reinforces the perception that the committee is not interested in hearing what the public thinks.
14 June 2018 - The DA’s message is often overlooked in favour of such considerations as style and tone. Nothing makes the case better than the story of the ‘Stop Zuma’ posters.
14 June 2018 - Farming is complex and difficult, and it requires considerable resources. Land in itself is only part of a successful agrarian combination, and not the most difficult to provide.
13 June 2018 - What is clear is South Africa’s future is never a foregone conclusion.
