Why we brought Wednesday’s Motion of No Confidence to Parliament, and why we’d do it again
1 April 2022
Note to Editors: The following address to the nation was delivered today in Cape Town by the DA Federal Leader, John Steenhuisen MP.
Fellow citizens,
As you may know, on Wednesday Parliament debated and voted on a Motion of No Confidence in the entire Cabinet - a motion which I tabled on behalf of the DA last month.
We brought this motion because every single member of this ANC cabinet is directly responsible for the dismal state of our economy and the failure to provide services, safety and dignity to our citizens. Their incompetence, indifference and corruption has brought suffering to millions of South Africans who cannot find work and who live an incredibly hard life of poverty and despair. Yet not one of these ministers is ever held accountable by the president who appointed them.
