23 May 2019 - Mr Ramaphosa is just as bound by the Nasrec resolutions as any other ANC member, but his appointed role is currently to keep on with the empty reassurances.
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.
22 May 2019 - Nampo is a good place to talk business. It is billed as the ‘largest agricultural fair in the Southern Hemisphere’ and its GDP must surely reach into the billions.
22 May 2019 - The people’s war that gave the ANC the ‘state power’ it needed to implement its Soviet-inspired national democratic revolution (NDR) is analysed in an updated and abridged edition of People’s War: New Light on the Struggle for South Africa by Dr Anthea Jeffery, Head of Policy Research at the Institute of Race Relations (IRR).
22 May 2019 - It isn’t going to end well, unless someone puts their foot down. And that is necessary because, as Van Damme herself says, in the end, she is going to destroy herself.
21 May 2019 - As economic freedom gains traction in different spheres of the world, with marked successes most notable in Asia of late, understanding how markets come about within a state of economic freedom are tied closely to limitations on arbitrary executive powers.
20 May 2019 - The ANC and its communist and trade union allies will no doubt be outraged, but there is little they can do if Mr Ramaphosa now (albeit belatedly) asserts the supremacy of the Constitution over his party.
20 May 2019 - The 1928 flag that flew over apartheid has not, however, been waved at a rally to harm others in my lifetime. I hope it never does. And there is civic pride to be drawn from the fact that there is not one proven case of the flag being used to rally political support to mobilize a hateful cause. A civic pride that swells when you think of every instance in which the new and beautiful flag has been waved, voluntarily, without any law to force it, in bathrooms and living rooms and on the side-windows of cars and by the tens of thousands in our stadia.
20 May 2019 - To invoke the constitution as offering protection — as the president does — is rather disingenuous, since he and his party are formally committed to amending it.
20 May 2019 - They are neglected by, and indifferent to, formal politics, but theirs is arguably the greater force, the real “people’s power” of individuals making demonstrably better choices for themselves than the democratic electoral process has proved itself capable of.
19 May 2019 - Wil die DA sy kiesers terughê? Dit sal die vraag wees wat die party in die maande vorentoe homself sal moet afvra.
17 May 2019 - If this is indeed genuine, and represents the intention of the ANC and the government, it raises troubling questions about the direction of policy. It suggests a recommitment to a dirigiste path that – in view of the pathologies within the state – has no chance of driving growth and promoting prosperity.
17 May 2019 - ANC propaganda over decades has so blurred and distorted the historical record as to make it very difficult to understand this two-stage struggle: the first for power and the second for a communist future. So long as most people are denied the truth on these vital issues, so long will they persist in expressing their discontent in a way that suits the ANC very well – by staying away from the polls, rather than by voting a more credible party into power.
