๐ฟ๐ฆ๐Despite 30 years, BEE has failed to deliver meaningful inclusion, with millions of South Africans still trapped in poverty.
Watch as the DAโs Mat Cuthbert unpacks the DAโs Economic Inclusion for All Bill that will empower all.

There is no question that redress remains a national imperative. But after 30 years, BEE has failed to deliver meaningful inclusion. Instead, it has enriched a politically connected few, while millions remain locked out of real economic opportunity.

#LOTTOHEIST| SIU SECURES RECOVERY OF MISAPPROPRIATED LOTTERY FUNDS AND EXPOSES PATTERN OF ABUSE
The Special Investigating Unit (SIU) has secured the full repayment of R3.2 million from a National Lotteries Commission (NLC) related beneficiaries who unduly benefited. The SIU has received R1.5 million that was misappropriated by Todi Media Development Foundation NPC and R1.71 million unduly awarded to Zibsiflo NPC.
It is only the Democratic Alliance that fixes water pipes, delivers new schools, repairs roads and builds the most houses. Working governments deliver more dignity for all residents. ๐๐
Under my leadership, we will show that the DA works to serve ALL South Africans. #StrongerDA #StrongerSA ๐ฟ๐ฆ

Today, my heart is filled with immense pride.
Over the past decade, I have watched @Khathutshelo_R grow into a strong, principled, and effective leader.

After two terms in council, executive experience in government, a term in the provincial legislature, and two degrees to her name, we now have a 36-year-old leader ready to govern one of South Africaโs major cities.
My mission as DA leader will be to build a stronger South Africa, therefore we must have a stronger Democratic Alliance. ๐ฟ๐ฆ๐
We must do 4 things to strengthen the DA:
๐ ๏ธ Govern well for everyone.
๐ Connect deeply with every South African.
๐๏ธ Show strength in government.
๐ฟ๐ฆ Restore belief in our country.
@Our_DA remains committed to an empowerment policy that eliminates exclusion, boosts economic growth, and creates jobs.
The Economic Inclusion for All Bill is an important first step towards achieving these goals.

I am grateful to receive the support of 7 Democratic Alliance Provincial Leaders. ๐
Our mission will be to build a #StrongerDA for a #StrongerSA ๐ฟ๐ฆ
We call on business, labour, and civil society to work with us to build a system that truly benefits all South Africans, one that unlocks opportunity, supports those who need it most, and ensures that public resources serve the many, not the few.

My latest in the @BDliveSA.
To stop the Cat Matlalas of this world from enriching themselves at the expense of the poor, South Africa must finally graduate from the failed system of BEE and embrace an economic inclusion model that delivers for all.

The future of empowerment policy is up for debate and itโs not going anywhere soon. SAโns want a system that works for all and not just the politically connected elite. Letโs use this opportunity to genuinely address unemployment, poverty and inequality.

This bill addresses our enduring and painful challenges of poverty, unemployment and inequality. Supporting it is not a matter of party politics but a question of finding the most effective way of graduating from a system that has failed to transform the economy for the majority.
๐๐ Congratulations to all the candidates selected for the Class of 2026 DA Young Leaders! This programme will equip you with the necessary skills to lead and make a meaningful impact in public service or politics. Hereโs to the next Gen Leaders who will shape SAโs future!
โ๏ธ The DA is fighting against the ANCโs elite enrichment scheme. Itโs time to end policies that benefit only the politically connected few & replace them with real empowerment for all South Africans.
โ๏ธ Support our call for Economic Inclusion for All at https://t.co/F5qw0CmDvS.
๐ผ Watch as South Africans voice how BEE has failed to empower them, while politically connected elites continue to benefit. We need real empowerment that breaks poverty & creates opportunity for all.
