Investing in people means building a future where no child goes hungry, every learner stays in school, and poverty is tackled head-on. Together, we can grow a good society. 🌍

South Africa deserves an economy that works for everyone. By ending corruption, building infrastructure, ensuring policy certainty, and supporting growth, we can attract investment and create jobs, especially for our youth. 🌱

Gang violence is spiraling, and a child has tragically been shot. Communities cannot wait for the next tragedy before government responds, Mayor Morero must act now.

Westbury deserves safety, opportunity, and a government that acts before tragedy strikes.

Evidence before the commission shows political manipulation blocked prosecutions of apartheid-era human rights violations, betraying victims, perpetrators, the TRC, and South Africa’s democratic settlement.

The DA-controlled Conduct Committee has used a secretive, quasi-legal process to silence debate on a DA MP carrying a gun for party work in townships.

Our hearts go out to those grieving loved ones after yet another preventable building collapse. Illegal construction and weak enforcement cost lives that should never have been lost.

For 8 years, Sandra has fought rising tariffs, exposing how the City’s policies hurt ordinary residents. With her maths expertise and activist spirit, she’s now bringing her watchdog skills directly into Council.

Welcome, Sandra! ✊💛

Week after week, violence tears through everyday moments in the Cape Flats, leaving scars that figures can never capture. Safety should not be a privilege; it must be a right.

According to recent reporting from FoodForward SA, food insecurity is significantly higher in women-led households. 
Of course it is. When your income barely covers transport and rent, food becomes the shock absorber. Meals get skipped. Portions shrink.

Firstly, in the Adjustment Budget of the George Municipality, a provision has finally been made to establish a Grant-in-Aid Fund to assist struggling learners and their parents. However, do we still have no structured support for families in financial distress?

The City sold Cape Town’s iconic Good Hope Centre for R135m, ignoring public voices, heritage obligations, and housing needs. With 400,000 residents still waiting for homes, this sale raises serious questions of transparency, accountability and public trust.

Jobs are growing, but hunger is rising. Communities are trapped in poverty, denied hospitals, and left to face spiralling crime alone.

The Premier boasts of success while families bury their children. We say: dignity, justice, and safety cannot wait.

At R370 a month, the so-called “livelihood grant” doesn’t lift anyone above the food poverty line. Another year passes without a Basic Income Grant, an instrument of justice, not charity. Hunger and inequality remain unchanged while markets are reassured.

Housing is a significant issue, with a substantial backlog and many residents living on the outskirts of towns. The Good Party is concerned about the increasing number of backyard dwellers, particularly in coastal towns.

Informal traders are residents keeping families afloat and neighbourhood economies alive. Enforcement must respect dignity and provide viable alternatives, not push people deeper into desperation.

Selling 50 properties, including the historic Good Hope Centre, is a betrayal of Cape Town’s duty to deliver spatial justice and housing. 

Public land must serve residents, not the highest bidder.

Gauteng residents still face dry taps, broken traffic lights, and unsafe streets. Announcements don’t equal delivery, communities need results, not podium promises.

In the Cape Flats, overcrowding and poverty fuel violence that steals lives and shatters families. Every number here represents lives forever changed; we cannot look away.

As Premier Lesufi delivers his 2026 SOPA, GOOD calls for honesty on progress, clarity on unfulfilled promises, and concrete, time-bound plans to tackle Gauteng’s challenges. Residents deserve leadership that is ambitious and accountable.

The Western Cape is not the success story it’s spun to be. Crime, housing, and education failures continue to entrench inequality, especially for citizens of colour. Glossing over crises won’t cut it anymore.
