GNU negotiations lack maturity - Koma

The DA supported Cyril as promised. Now the ANC is going back on their word. Surprised??

E,x actly that........ Very self explanatory transparent veiw that any one with a half a brain cell can see that's what happened..... The DA have been drooped 😊

[@cobuscoetzee9948]

My suggestion would be to say to cyril you have 40 DA have 20. that means 2 to 1. let sit around a table then you ( ANC) start you take 2 then I take 1 and so on. after all. the ANC and DA can then compromise for the the other small parties. So simple 2 to 1.

Transparency is really important though, we want to know what exactly is being discussed and the stances being taken in the negotiations. Now south africans are aware of DA's arrogance and how their apparant founder 'Helen Ziller' lied to south africans by claiming the DA is not after positions but change. This has revealed that the DA is infact after positions.

The DA must not compromise. They must get their fair share of cabinet posts. The ANC is negotiating in bad faith. They are not disturbing power equitably in cabinet.

It's not arrogant to stick to a letter of intent and demand your fair share of cabinet. The ANC lost its majority.

The electorate gave this government a clear mandate. Representation in cabinet should be proportional to the number of NA seats in the GNU. Power must be shared equitably. Anything else would be undermining the people's will. The ANC must stop negotiating in bad faith and relinquish the power it lost.

U guys are behind... ANC Of no Ramaphosa is going to rescue SA and implement a perfect GNU..

[@emmanuelserepudi3406]

GNU eliminates the political concept of OPPOSITION..No opposing as the Parliament work together to debate laws and pass instruments to be executed by the Executive.. In a perfect and fully practiced GNU , ALL elected Political Parties enter into a Power -sharing-- arrangements of the Executive proportionate to their elected vote percentage...and this must include all ,not a coalition of few parties. National unity government, government of national unity (GNU), or national union government is a broad coalition government consisting of all parties (or all major parties) in the legislature, usually formed during a time of war or other national emergency (and indeed unemployment,poverty rates are high) A unity government according to the principles of consensus democracy lacks opposition( or opposition parties are too small and negligible) coalition government, or coalition cabinet, is a government where political parties enter a power-sharing arrangement of the executive. Coalition governments usually occur when no single party has achieved an absolute majority after an election. A party not having majority is common under proportional representation, but not in nations with majoritarian electoral systems. There are different forms of coalition governments, minority coalitions and surplus majority coalition governments. A surplus majority coalition government controls more than the absolute majority of seats in parliament necessary to have a majority in the government, whereas minority coalition governments do not hold the majority of legislative seats. A coalition government might also be created in a time of national difficulty or crisis (for example, during wartime or economic crisis) to give a government the high degree of perceived political legitimacy or collective identity, it can also play a role in diminishing internal political strife. In such times, parties have formed all-party coalitions (national unity governments, grand coalitions). If a coalition collapses, the Prime Minister and cabinet may be ousted by a vote of no confidence, call snap elections, form a new majority coalition, or continue as a minority government. The best GNU Can only be achieved when the power for executive positions is eliminated.. THE PROBLEM Here surfaces the issue of Coalition government, or coalition cabinet, is a government where political parties enter a power-sharing arrangement of the executive. This is one of the reasons complete transformation from majoritarian to GNU fails.. Why...because the Political ideology of having a One Party Majority system still lingers. Only two perfect options to perfect GNU....In considerations of current Constitutional instruments, are Let All parties be represented in the Executive by their ELECTED Vote percentage. All parties should forward their desired candidature (equaling their percentage in parliament)to the Consulting Council which is represented by all parties. Secondly and Lastly.. The best medicine to eliminate the hunger for Political Parties power struggle of Cabinet positions is to allow for All Executive positions to be applied for and Vetted by Parliament...No MP 's appointment to Executive possitions...All other inportant positions like of intelligence..police. defence...judiciary..let them be decided for by Parliament...not President..his duty just be to execute what the parliament pass as wholly debated laws and policies that are monitored by parliamet.. GNU
