Anyone willing to turn away foreign investment in South Africa because of valid criticism of the country’s race-based laws and legislation, such as the Expropriation Act, should also be prepared to explain to the unemployed masses why the economy is not growing. South Africa’s economic situation is so precarious that political leaders can hardly tell […]

The so-called Green Drop Award that the national Department of Water and Sanitation has bestowed on the Msukaligwa Local Municipality is misleading and an insult to residents who endure the consequences of poor water management on a daily basis. Ironically, the same Department that is now honouring the Municipality successfully brought it before the High […]

The recent remarks by the ANC’s Greater Tshwane Region regarding corruption occurring in the Tshwane Metropolitan Police Department (TMPD) under the previous administration, of which the Freedom Front Plus (VF Plus) was part, are nothing more than a transparent attempt to divert attention away from the actual corruption crisis in the Tshwane Metro. While the […]

The decision by the ANC/EFF government in the Mogale City Local Municipality (Krugersdorp, Magaliesburg, Muldersdrift) to revert to a more affordable electricity tariff structure is a major victory for the Freedom Front Plus (VF Plus).

The increasing trade restrictions recently imposed by Namibia, Botswana and Mozambique on South African agricultural exports not only jeopardise South Africa’s agricultural sector, but also undermine regional trade and economic stability in Southern Africa. This directly contradicts the fundamental principle of the Southern African Customs Union (SACU) and the objectives of the African Continental Free […]

Officials from various departments of the Tshwane Metro’s contempt for residents’ petitions regarding service delivery problems is a slap in the face of residents who faithfully meet their financial obligations, but have to endure deteriorating infrastructure and poor service delivery on a daily basis.

The Ekurhuleni Metro has finally, after pressure from the Freedom Front Plus (VF Plus) and numerous complaints from residents, begun repairing the pothole-riddled access routes in Brakpan, Benoni and Springs.

The Nelson Mandela Bay Metro (NMBM) clearly does not possess the expertise and managerial capacity to resolve the ongoing water crisis on its own. The Metro itself contributes significantly to the problem through failing to do routine maintenance and repair thousands of leaks, resulting in more than half the treated potable water being lost. According […]

The culture of violence in South Africa is not only derailing the country, but also steering it towards anarchy and utter chaos.

The Umkhonto we Sizwe Party (MK) seems determined to undo key provisions of the 1994 constitutional agreement. This can be gleaned from the announcement regarding the repeal of Section 235 on self-determination published in the Government Gazette on 27 March 2026. In a media statement issued on 7 April 2026, the party states that it […]

Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi’s sudden appointment of the EFF’s Nkululeko Dunga as the new MEC for Finance in the Gauteng government is a serious mistake.

The Tshwane Metro Council’s decision to write off millions in debt, without being certain of the exact amount or the legitimate grounds for doing so, serves as shocking proof of the Metro’s poor financial management. In a Mayoral Committee report tabled to the Council, two different amounts — R17 million and R15,6 million — are […]

The shoddy manner in which the Ekurhuleni Metro repaired a damaged power cable in Helder Road, Germiston, is life-threatening and unacceptable. After vandals cut an electricity supply cable during an attempted theft, the power supply was restored using methods that appear to disregard all safety protocols. The damaged cable appears to have been fixed using […]

The 11,2% electricity tariff increase proposed by the Nelson Mandela Bay Metro (NMBM), which has been submitted to NERSA for approval, will place an unfair and unsustainable burden on residents and businesses who are already under severe financial pressure.

The Freedom Front Plus (VF Plus) simply cannot support the draft budget for 2026/27, with its accompanying tariff increases, of the Maruleng Local Municipality (Hoedspruit, Kampersrus, Ofcolaco). Residents will find themselves under greater financial pressure with an average increase of 3,7%, while administrative costs and certain capital expenditure will shoot up simultaneously. Key objections include: […]
