Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>The Police and Prisons Civil Rights Union (POPCRU) is calling for a “political dialogue” of likeminded organisations opposed to the Government of National Unity (GNU).<\/p>\n

POPCRU\u2019s leaders say the seventh administration or GNU will be a “disaster” for the majority of black South Africans, if nothing is done about it.<\/p>\n

This follows POPCRU’s central executive committee meeting in Boksburg this week, where the union discussed policy reforms and political matters.<\/p>\n

POPCRU joins other alliance partners like the South African Communist Party (SACP) to reject the GNU.<\/p>\n

POPCRU president, Thulani Ngwenya, said the dialogue should involve everyone on the “left” from the SACP, ANC, MK Party and anyone who thinks alike on issues around land and transformation.<\/p>\n

“All those people who subscribe to those principles in terms of the Freedom Charter, they are more than available to come to that dialogue so that we engage and find common ground.”<\/p>\n

Ngwenya said the GNU, where some parties were opposed to the BELA Act and the NHI, spells bad news for South Africans.<\/p>\n

“Calling for unity and services to all South Africans and not for a few. That\u2019s why are political analysis is saying no this thing is a disaster.”<\/p>\n

Ngwenya said they’d come up with eleven items for the Agenda 2060 as POPCRU that could benefit the majority.<\/p>\n
