Secretary of the South African Communist Party (SACP) in Mpumalanga, Lucky Mbuyane says the party believes the Government of National Unity will not do much to improve the lives of the poor in the country.
Mbuyane was speaking at his party’s Phillip Radebe District Red October Campaign in Elandshoek near Mbombela.
He says instead the ANC could lose a number of votes in the local government elections due to the current GNU arrangement.
“And we can see that the so-called GNU, which from time to time we find the neoliberal, the DA, contesting the posture of government, including the NHI. We saw them marching with the old flag now in Pretoria, going to Fort Tracker, wearing apartheid clothes, challenging the very same policies that must transform society in South Africa, which is the NHI, which is the Bella Act, and now they are challenging the communication bill. We’re concerned about this stance of DA, which is neoliberal,” says Mbuyane.
