FF Plus again asks Electoral Court to deregister BLF | gerbjan
FF Plus leaders Corné Mulder, Pieter Groenewald and Wouter Wessels, announcing their plans to ask the Electoral Court to deregister the BLF.
FF Plus leader Pieter Groenewald said they would have a strong case, as the Electoral Commission Act prohibits the chief electoral officer from registering a party that excludes people from joining based on race, ethnicity and skin colour. According to FF Plus MP Wouter Wessels, the IEC dismissed their appeal without looking at the merits, and only looked at the time constraints and the"balance of convenience" ahead of the elections. According to Groenewald, a party which only allowed coloured members, had its registration declined by the IEC. He said everyone should be equal before the law.
