GOOD will once again ask voters in these wards to lend the party their votes – and, should they prove disappointing, vote them out at the next opportunity.

GOOD remains steadfast in our goal to provide leadership that can build a better and more equitable society for all South Africans, including the residents of Witzenberg.

The GOOD Party welcomes the decision by the High Court to block the Eastern Cape Government from changing the type of municipality in Nelson Mandela Bay from an Executive Mayoral system to a Mayoral Committee system.

Let’s spin this question around.  Instead of asking if we can afford to have a Basic Income Grant, ask if we can afford not to have one. Can we afford to leave 8 million unemployed South Africans in a severe state of hunger, failing in our constitutional obligations and increasing the levels of anger and desperation in our society?

We are calling on South Africans to support our campaign for a GOOD Deal - a Basic Income Grant. We’re pegging the deal at R999 a month, and we believe, if we put our minds to it, it’s a GOOD and affordable deal for all of us.

GOOD is hopeful that the R80,9 billion City of Joburg budget will start to resolve the long-standing issues of infrastructure decay across all service interfacing Municipal Owned Entities but disagrees that rate payers should suffer hefty increases to recoup from the major revenue losses.

The National Health Insurance Bill isn’t perfect. But the principle it represents is too important to be reduced to another battleground for rightist anti-transformation zealots and Gucci revolutionaries to spew identity politics.

  Four days after we were told, in April, that South Africa’s application for the extradition from the UAE of the Gupta brothers had failed, I submitted a request to the Speaker in terms of Rule 130 of the National Assembly Rules for a debate on an urgent matter of public importance.

Parliament will tomorrow debate an Urgent Matter of National Public Importance introduced by Brett Herron MP on behalf of the GOOD Party.
