The ANC government and those aligned to it were faced with a clear choice: fix the delivery of electricity to South Africa’s citizens or protect the job of a deployed ANC cadre. Political loyalty trumped loyalty to the South African public. ...

Helen Zille For a democracy to work, power must be held to account. For this reason, the institutions of state, (such as the courts and the public broadcaster) must be genuinely independent from the ruling party. They must protect the public interest, not the party’s interests. This is where the notion of the separation of powers comes from. The “separation of powers” is the cornerstone of accountable democracy.
Helen Zille May I add...Matric is an important gateway to the next phase of your life. A good matric certificate opens many doors to further study and to jobs. Study diligently, so that you can make full use of your opportunities afterwards.
Helen Zille Wishing all Matric Learners success for their upcoming final exams.
Helen Zille The unelected organisations to which I refer have never been brave enough to face elections on their own, are COSATU and the South African Communist Party, both who have an undue hold over our present government.
Helen Zille How would you respond if you learnt that the SA Government had been infiltrated by an organisation that had never been elected, and whose aims were to eliminate private property, nationalise the mines and food, and abolish parliament? What if you learnt that this group had inserted ministers in government to drive policy objectives that have brought disaster everywhere in the world where they have been implemented?
Helen Zille The DA is proposing legislation to outlaw any officials from awarding government contracts to private companies in which they have interests. Public servants must not be able to do business with the state. We are going to launch a national campaign demanding financial disclosure forms for all elected representatives and officials. I intend writing to all DA members urging them to action on this.
Helen Zille I will visit the Esselen Park community in Kempton Park tomorrow morning, where I will be engaging with residents, listening to their grievances and visiting their homes.
Helen Zille The DA congratulates Mr. Justice Sandile Ngcobo on his appointment as Chief Justice. His appointment brings with it the sacred responsibility of upholding South Africa’s laws and safeguarding our Constitution. It is no exaggeration to say that the future of South Africa’s democracy depends on how he, and his fellow judges discharge the responsibility with which they have been vested.
Helen Zille I am meeting President Zuma and the Minister of Police in Pretoria today, to discuss the crime epidemic and urge immediate action after the latest revelations of police mismanagement.
Helen Zille We must become a society where racism is accurately defined and universally condemned, where people are judged by their character, capacity and qualities; and where political parties are judged by their policies. We must become a society in which race is no longer the issue. The issues must become the issue.
Helen Zille I am in Kwa-Zulu Natal today and will address supporters at the site of Nelson Mandela’s capture, a land mark in the struggle against apartheid. I will be joined by community leaders, Dr Frank Mdlalose, the first premier of KZN, Rita Easton, anti-apartheid activist a former Black Sash member and Kanagie Pillay, a former Chatsworth Woman of the Year.
Helen Zille The Silicon Cape Initiative is a great concept and a breakthrough for our country. I’m right on board.

Promising Entrepeneurs + Great Ideas + World Class Talent + Investors + Great Place to Live = The Silicon Cape
Helen Zille On behalf of the Democratic Alliance, I would like to wish South Africa’s Muslim community Eid Mubarak as Ramadaan comes to an end. May your celebration be festive and may your year be filled with blessings.
