On Tuesday, GOOD’s Councillor Sarah Mabotsa, the Tshwane MMC responsible for Economic Development and Spatial Planning, hosted more than 100 Early Childhood Development practitioners to discuss the waiving of development changes which the Tshwane Council recently approved.  Although the DA and FF+ opposed waiving these charges for ECD centres, GOOD with other coalition partners supported this initiative to improve education outcomes for young people in Tshwane’s townships. The waiving of costs will help more ECD centres to register and be able to access grants that support pre-school nutrition and healthcare programme. GOOD education begins with early childhood development. Research has shown that ECD improves school readiness, academic achievement and lifelong well-being, particularly for children from disadvantaged backgrounds. #GOODParty #Tshwane #EarlyChildhoodDevelopment

This past weekend, GOOD Overberg District Councillor Dr Johannes Syms attended the International Firefighters' Day celebrations hosted by the ODM. International Firefighters' Day is observed annually 4 May to honour firefighters for their service and to remember who lost their lives in active service.  Cllr Syms used the opportunity to engage with the various stakeholders about the lack of services in rural towns and the need to review the existing fire service services level agreement between ODM and with three of the four local municipalities. The attention should also shift to community training and awareness. Cllr Syms has for the past few years championed Emergency First Aid Responder (EFAR) training with the Provincial Emergency Medical Services (EMS) in the Overberg District. This, he believes, is the first step and should ultimately culminate in trained community volunteer firefighters. #InternationalFirefightersDay #GOODParty #OverbergDistrict #CommunitySafety

Apparently, and according to the DA and Helen Zille, it’s better to be poor in Cape Town… #TikTok vt.tiktok.com/ZS9KGcVWR/

Apparently it’s better to be poor in Cape Town 🤯

Over 12.4 million South Africans are jobless, while the R370 SRD grant leaves millions below the food poverty line. The Constitution demands urgent action. The State must cut waste and corruption to fund a Basic Income Grant, dignity and survival cannot wait. #GOODParty #BIGNow #Justice

[REMINDER] Calling on all ECD practitioners to attend a workshop @CityTshwane tomorrow (Tuesday 12th May 2026).

The suspension of GO George has left hundreds stranded in hazardous weather. It is a contradiction to cite "safety" while forcing the most vulnerable to walk home in a storm.  #GOODParty #GOGeorge #George #TransportJustice

Even with the army on our streets, families are still burying loved ones, gang shootings continue, fear remains. Every number is a life cut short, a family broken. We cannot wait months for “long-term impact” while people die weekly. Urgent, real solutions are needed now. #GOODParty #CapeFlats #CommunitySafety

Remember Cape Town that there could have been funds to respond better to disaster relief & disaster preparedness. But the DA hates the poor so much they voted against this because I foregrounded informal settlements as usually severely affected. These funds would help right now.

🚍 MyCiTi’s future at risk.  Treasury is cutting BRT funding after billions spent nationally failed to deliver. Without transformed urban planning, Cape Town’s system may struggle to sustain itself. #GOODParty #CapeTown #PublicTransport
