ActionSA has concluded a productive and mutually respectful first engagement with the ANC in which we discussed principles around how stable and effective coalition governments could be formed.
We remain committed to engaging all parties in such a manner.

Sidebar:
For someone who knows how to identify other political parties’ challenges, Malema seems to limited in identifying and assessing his own party’s challenges.
If Julius is correct, then one solution for ActionSA would be to go with my Option 1.*
In that scenario, the only thing to be determined would be which of the two takes the Mayorship, and which one takes the Speakership. 🌚
*There are many other possibilities, of course. Lol

This is an interesting outcome as the EFF is no longer needed to form a coalition government in Tshwane.
LGE 2026 | ActionSA leader Herman Mashaba is emphatic that Dr Nasiphi Moya will continue serving as the Mayor of Tshwane.
Tshwane - 99% VDs declared
DA: 34.38% (32.03%)
ActionSA: 22.08% (8.64%)
ANC:20.2% (34.63%)

WTC Final 2025 wasn’t an aberration!!! World Test Champions for a reason. Simon Harmer is a wonderful cricketer. Well played South Africa.

As it stands - a week before the election - the ANC has not announced its mayoral candidate for Johannesburg. With National structures uncertain of how regional leadership would handle the process, we have a state of paralysis. Emblematic of a broader, normative stasis

KG Rabada pointing at the Aussie change room and telling them to pad up and face the follow on is peak ALPHA only if you back it up.
4-77 of 23 hostile overs. Salute.

This is highly problematic for many reasons. The most obvious is that Boucher says he understands ‘Transformation’ but patronizes an established black player - Temba Bavuma - who was vice captain on the most recent Proteas’ tour.
