@LCabonena Jellybean is showing the DA who is the boss. Good move to remove Jan Kliphuis.

Democratic Alliance leader Geordin Hill-Lewis has asked President Cyril Ramaphosa to remove John Steenhuisen as Minister of Agriculture.

@GvanOnselen I think you should visit your local Hennie's pub and read rule nr. one.

Right decision by DA. Tough one too. Steenhusien will be remembered for various things. Among them, how he decimated FF+ support in 2024. Cost them 195k votes and a 43% decline in support. Just wrecked them. So their glee I suspect is more relief than anything else.

@Saxon_African I think this is the best Jellybean AKA Gordon has made.

I'm glad to see that Willie Aucamp who is educated in law and owns a farm is now the minister of agriculture. Let's hope he reforms the department.

@JordiGriff Excellent decision by Jellybean.

The DA reshuffle is a political bomb squad. Aucamp-Agriculture. Farmer himself. Popular. Maynier-Environment. WC Education MEC. Best in country. Policy expert. Cassim-Higher Edu dpt. His specialist field. Bloom-Water dpt. Excellent issue driver. Heavy hitters. All of them.

@RenaldoGouws @GvanOnselen Gordon Hill-Lewis Aka (Jelly Bean) is a puppet of the liberals of the world.

Oh for fuck sakes... you are trying to over complicate things to make it more grey than the black and white it is. 1. Geordin attacked Minister Groenewald personally for parolees who have been missing since 1991. 2. He then doubled down on his original post. 3. The DA then chimed in and tripled down. Do you know how many ANC ministers Geordin had to overlook for this failure to ultimately blame Groenewald for this? Common sense tells you that this was a cheap shot. If you can't comprehend it then don't worry, everyone else did, hence the response GHL and the DA got.

1/8. A few thoughts on this piece of analytical onanism. First, 28,000 parolees have vanished over the past two decades. Next to nothing has been done. This is not a good thing. It is a bad thing. That is what some people might call “common sense”. x.com/CommonSense_ZA…

@CommonSense_ZA They did exactly what left-wing liberals tend to do all the time.

What is wrong with Geordin Hill-Lewis and Ryan Coetzee? Fresh off the DA’s township ward-winning success in Emfuleni, the pair engaged in the most childish and scurrilous squabble on X with Correctional Services Minister Pieter Groenewald. f.mtr.cool/hueixsiyir

@RenaldoGouws He is in the process of becoming the next Carl N.

A year after leaving the DA for the PA, Liam Jacobs rejoins the DA with a welcome-back party hosted by none other than Geordin Hill-Lewis. A year ago, Liam left the DA and proclaimed, "I am finally free". He left the DA because he said he was being used as a coloured person for votes. Strange how he returns to the party that he stabbed in the back, and not only do they welcome him back with open arms, but none of the reasons he left were addressed before his return. This is clearly a case of Liam not getting what he was promised by the PA and Gayton, and now returning with his tail between his legs, and the desperate DA gladly accepts him back. My question is, considering what he said about the DA using him as a coloured person, has that been resolved in a year, or is he happy being used now because he didn't get what he was promised by the PA? Desperate times call for desperate measures, it seems. I suppose the DA is forced to trust him not to jump ship again, and Liam needs the DA to become relevant again. They deserve each other.

@Our_DA Asking for a friend, who are the people in this photo.

🚨 28,000 parolees have effectively vanished from the system. The DA has called on Parliament to summon Minister Groenewald to explain this shocking failure and outline a plan to get these absconders back into custody.

@Our_DA The DA needs to understand that voters are not naïve. They will see this for what it is—a cheap political attack on Mr. Groenewald. This kind of mudslinging is unlikely to win you any new supporters; if anything, it risks alienating voters and costing you support.

@geordinhl @Our_DA Mr Hill-Lewis is this you with George Soros in the picture, asking for a friend.

🚨Nearly 28,000 parolees are untraceable. Gone. Missing. Many of these are violent criminals, now walking free, putting the public at risk. Pieter Groenewald must not hide behind excuses. He must act today to find these parolees, bring them back before the law, and hold every official accountable who allowed them to disappear. The DA will not accept a system where criminals roam free and communities are left to pay the price. A DA-led government will implement electronic monitoring, proper supervision, and real accountability.

@GroenewaldPJ @geordinhl @Our_DA Mnr. Groenewald, u het in twee jaar meer respek van Suid-Afrikaners verdien as wat die DA in die afgelope 30 jaar ontvang het. Mr. Groenewald, you have earned more respect from South Africans in two years than the DA has received in the past 30 years.

@geordinhl @Our_DA Geordin. The 29k is since 1991. I stated in public that I am in a process of electronic bracelets for parolees. There is progress. I had a parole summit last year Sept on the revision of the parole system. We are busy with legislative amendments. Don’t practice cheap politics

@GaytonMcK It seems to me you are Ramaposa's Imbongi yenkosi.

He's not delaying Parliament, he's exercising rights enshrined in our legal system by reviewing a Section 89 report from before ConCourt's ruling. He didn't invent or strongarm this. It's always been there. You guys are excited for nothing. There will be no impeachment.

@LCabonena They do not want to be part of the crime syndicate called SAPS.

Where are the Indians and Whites????

@pookiepolls Still the same, NO.

Knowing what you know now, how would you have voted in the referendum.

@PMashatile Always the same story, but you know as well as I do, the ANC is corrupt to the core. That will never happen under ANC rule.

The ANC remains committed to revitalizing local government, promoting inclusive economic growth, creating jobs, and restoring public trust in state institutions to regain confidence in its leadership of the National Democratic Revolution (NDR).

@ErnstRoets In my opinion, the PA was created by the ANC to weaken the DA in the Western Cape, with the expectation that it would draw support from coloured voters. I believe this strategy may ultimately backfire.

Turns out the Government of National Unity in South Africa was a fantastic development for the ANC, because some of the strongest opposition leaders allowed themselves to be swallowed by the ANC in exchange for cabinet positions.

@geordinhl Let's rephrase a part of your statement, "it does lay bare the deeply alarming state of the ANC corruption"

South Africans now face the extraordinary reality that the Minister of Police, the National Commissioner, and a Deputy National Commissioner have all been suspended or placed on leave. This suspension is necessary and welcome; but it does lay bare the deeply alarming state of SAPS senior management. Time for a proper clean out!

@DailyInvestorSA The ANC, EFF and ASA run City's will find a way to steal all that money if there is no oversight from Europe, and remember, it's a loan.

France is in talks to lend South Africa money to support a program to regenerate its rundown cities, the European country’s ambassador said. dailyinvestor.com/finance/130755…
