OHM has a plan for education .. a system whereby children will leave school with a skill. University is not achievable by the majority of children they need to be empowered to be entrepreneurs using their skills and talent. Artisan skills build a strong economy and creates the space for an independent sovereign country. Do we want parties to be powerful or a country that is powerful and not reliant on the west and BRICS countries.

[@KlipDriftCoke]

The EFF are a bunch of racist, useless punks that can't govern and have never been able to make a tangible difference in SA like the PA and Action SA. They have no significant mayors or MMCs and only retards vote for those primates of the EFF. I hope those cowards can go campaigning in places like Westbury so they can be humbled and so they can realize how insignificant and pathetic they actually are. The EFF is nothing and will always be nothing and their voters are either stupid or desperate as their leader is one of the biggest hypocrites in SA, that's the honest truth.

[@Chantelleweich]

There is 400 seats available in parliament and EVERY vote counts a lot! It doesn't have to be shared by only a few parties. The more parties share these 400 seats, the more solutions are there to get our country free from global influence. There is no such thing as a wasted vote if you don't vote for a 'big' party, just vote, it is the only thing you can do, the rest of decisions are decided by the parties.

[@BelieveInMiracles888]

[@MrLechesa]

If a party gets about 15000 votes. That's not enough for a seat, therefore making those votes wasted🤷🏾‍♂️. Go look at 2019 results. Many parties fell within this category. If they had joined forces then they would be 2nd or 3rd as a collective. But the divisions render them useless

Yes, your number of R160 Mil it can definitely be lower? but why do you think it is so high at the moment? surely you know why? cadre deployment. Did the EFF even think of what they would be doing to South Africa with these 1920 ideas? No, get corruption out, first thing. Then setup a tender for all businesses and make sure, the best company gets chosen, and if the public requires transparency, they need to lay out why the company was chosen and others weren't, so the public can see what is happening with their tax money. That is how you would solve that high number.
