🙅🏼🛀🏽 No resident can afford to hire hotel rooms to get a shower because your failing government denies them water at home.

This billboard sends a strong message – act, or the DA will force you to.

@BelindaE6 @HermanMashaba @Our_DA @DA_JHB @DAGauteng @HermanMashaba What would the ensuing behaviour have been? If the DA had won its motion to remove the mayor, the ASA speaker would not have been retained - why would you be asked to shoot yourselves in both feet?

The DA in Ward 102 demands answers on what the 34 million rands for the Randburg CBD Bramfisher Drive & Jan Smuts intersection upgrade was spent on because the CBD intersection is still in a bad state. #TrueStateoftheCity @BelindaE6

🇿🇦🚨 The City of Johannesburg has been in a dire state for many years. Over the past 30 years, we have seen the City’s infrastructure deteriorate daily, and the ANC government turned a blind eye to this. Sadly, it had to take hosting the G20 Summit for the Presidency to realise the mess that Johannesburg is in.

The DA in Gauteng has submitted a formal letter to President Ramaphosa, expressing its plan to rescue Johannesburg.

Voting against a motion to rescind the resolution to rename Sandton Drive is in effect voting in favour of the renaming.

[Belinda Kayser-Echeozonjoku @BelindaE6]

🚨FACT The Patriotic Alliance voted against @Our_DA Motion to rescind the previous motion to Rename Sandton Drive to Leila Khaled. The Patriotic Alliance lied to their voters & despite @Kenny_T_Kunene being absent, All PA councillors present voted with the ANC against it being rescinded, we saw them. Numbers don't lie.
For: 61. Against: 170 and Abstain: 0

The DA has invoked Clause 19 of the GNU Statement of Intent to reset relations between GNU partners. SA deserves a coalition built on respect and real solutions.

Absolute nonsense, no bill signed into law can be in conflict with the constitution. The basic right of property ownership is what ANC seeks to tamper with @MbalulaFikile in this bill. I am in full support of my party @Our_DA taking it to court✊️🇿🇦

📁 In its ongoing efforts to stabilise coalition governments across SA, the DA has this week published for public comment the Municipal Threshold Bill.

This will add an electoral threshold for political parties to qualify for a seat in municipalities.

Important to note that this is now the second time MMC Nkoukou is stopping oversight. No respect for residents who want to know what's going on EM @DadaMorero if you can't call your MMC's to order, we shall use any legal means necessary to do so..@DA_JHB @DAGauteng

[Belinda Kayser-Echeozonjoku @BelindaE6]

🔍 The DA in Johannesburg has formally submitted a request to National Treasury to investigate the R236 million water tanker tender that was awarded to Nutinox and Builtpro Construction.

This call for an investigation follows damning allegations of irregularities in the tender process, as recently exposed by Daily Maverick and Amabungane. Despite raising serious concerns with the relevant MMCs, Cllr Jack Sekwaila and Cllr Loyiso Masuku, the DA's requests for clarity have been met with silence.

Minister of Public Works and Infrastructure, Dean Macpherson says that he and other DA members found out through social media that the #ExpropriationBill had been signed into law. He says he had advised the president to reconsider the legislation. #LandWithoutPay #ExpropriationAct #DStv403 #QuestionThinkAct

[Democratic Alliance @Our_DA]

🇿🇦 The DA entered the GNU to rescue SA, not to roll out the ANC’s failed policies of the past 30 years. We've invoked Clause 19 to dispute the Expropriation Act & NHI, calling for a reset in relations to ensure a functional coalition!

[Dean Macpherson MP @DeanMacpherson]

I welcome the correspondence from @TimesLIVE today, in which they unreservedly apologised to me for publishing a defamatory and untruthful opinion piece by @JJTabane that I bribed a journalist to write negative stories about the IDT. Unfortunately, several political parties fell for this fake news, issued statements, and repeated these lies without any evidence being produced.

I will not be deterred in my efforts to clean up the department and root out corruption, even in the face of fabricated stories designed to unite individuals and parties in an attempt to hinder me from doing my job.
