Elections2019: Who really oils political machinery?
Now that the election is truly upon us, with street poles sagging under the weight of political party posters vying for our votes, it is time to revisit the thorny issue of political party funding.
The PAC and Azapo are much older liberation movements while the UDM and Cope were born during the height of democracy and both their births were with much fanfair.The question of political party funding has therefore become more important than ever.The DA is splashing more on posters and banners and they are the most vocal party who were vehemently opposed to the Political Party Funding Bill, that seeks to regulate public and private support for political parties.
It is incumbent for South Africans to know who is funding political parties.
Who keeps them going? Who is oiling their political machinery to splash so much on political advertising?
