Helen Zille’s controversial admission at the SA Chamber of Commerce reveals the DA’s prioritisation of business interests over the needs of South Africans, igniting debates about the party’s true motives.
DA chairperson Helen Zille admits the party’s alignment with business interests. Picture: Ayanda Ndamane / Independent NewspapersDA federal chairperson Helen Zille has made a startling admission, revealing that her party prioritised business over the people’s interests.
According to Zille, Julius Malema’s EFF and Jacob Zuma’s MKP were not suitable for South Africa because large investors would leave the country. Most of this was said before and after the May 29 elections which saw the ANC lose its outright majority, forcing it to form a coalition government. ANC allies, including the National Education, Health, and Allied Workers’ Union , have condemned the GNU.
“The only time that the South African companies stopped investing aggressively in SA was just before Covid-19 where they decided to pay out more dividends to their shareholders and to invest outside of the country. “So no matter what kind of offers were made to the EFF and the MKP during the negotiations, that was just dangling a carrot that they were never going to get. Because white monopoly capital in SA had publicly declared that they should not be included in any power-sharing agreement in SA which is why today we don’t have a GNU but have a grand coalition between the DA, BLSA, and the ANC,” Swana said.“Her honesty is commendable and she must be encouraged to continue to do that,” Swana said.
