A BIG shout-out to the @Our_DA and, more importantly, to the residents of Cape Town! 👏🇿🇦 Cape Town is a perfect example of what happens when voters decide they want a government that can stand on its own feet without having to negotiate with five different political parties just to get one thing done. The DA governs the city alone. No coalition partners to accommodate, no endless political bargaining, no waking up every morning wondering whether a coalition partner is about to withdraw support. And shout-out to the residents for making their choice clear. It seems Cape Town voters are not particularly interested in isithembu politics when it comes to governance. They don't want a political polygamous marriage where everyone brings their own demands, interests and conditions into the household! They want accountability. They want consistency. They want service delivery. They want to know exactly who to blame when things go wrong and who to congratulate when things go right. There is a lesson here for the rest of South Africa: coalitions can work, but stable single-party governments have an advantage when it comes to policy consistency, accountability and decision-making. Cape Town has repeatedly received international recognition for its municipal governance and management. Whether you support the DA or not, you cannot simply ignore the importance of stability and continuity in running a city. Congratulations to the DA and the residents of Cape Town. You have made your political choice, and the rest of the country is watching and learning from u. 👏👏🇿🇦 businesstech.co.za/news/prop…
