The Tshwane coalition worked! The political parties had their differences. They disagreed, fought and endured their fair share of political tensions. Yet, when it came to governing, they found ways to rise above their differences and put the people of Tshwane first. I had hoped Tlangi from the ANC would emerge from these elections. In my view, she delivered exceptionally well. I believe that with more equitable budget allocations, she could have achieved considerably more for her portfolio . IGR has never been this strong in Tshwane and it’s all because of her and the ANC caucus. My hope is that the ongoing coalition negotiations will preserve the existing arrangement and allow these parties to build on the foundations they have laid. Political parties do not have to like one another, nor do they have to agree on everything or abandon their ideological differences to govern together. They just need to remember why they were elected to serve. And this coalition did exactly that!
