Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>As South Africa marked 100 days since the establishment of the Government of National Unity (GNU) this week, ActionSA says it remains comfortable with its decision not to join the African National Congress (ANC)-led coalition.<\/p>\n

It said while there seems to be an uptake in confidence over the new government, it\u2019s got little to do with how it\u2019s performed but the optimistic spirit of South Africans.<\/p>\n

The GNU is a power-sharing deal brokered by the former liberation movement after it failed to garner a clear majority in the May general elections.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also delivered a cabinet made up of representations across the political spectrum with parties such as the ANC, Democratic Alliance (DA), Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP), Freedom Front Plus and the Pan Africanist Congress of Azania (PAC).<\/p>\n

ActionSA\u2019s national chairperson Micheal Beaumont said in real terms, no reforms have arisen from the birth of the GNU.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause a policy lekgotla was supposed to take place, it\u2019s been radio silence coming out of that space, instead what we see is the NHI [National Health Insurance] being brought back to life, the BELA [Basic Education Laws Amendment] Bill coming into effect, we see the secrecy bill, someone blowing the dust off that and starting to bring that back, we see the largest cabinet we\u2019ve seen in the history of South African politics.\u201d<\/p>\n

Beaumont also decried what he termed a pre-defence of President Cyril Rmaphosa\u2019s Phala Phala saga as part of the compromise made by parties in negotiations to join the ANC-led coalition.<\/p>\n

He insisted that the GNU would not change the country\u2019s downward trajectory.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’m gonna venture a prospective here that at the end of this term of office, what we\u2019re actually going to see is a multi-party delivery of the same ANC politics that was voted out in 2024.\u201d<\/p>\n
