Newsletter| Our members – black or white, male or female – are all subjected to the same rules and we hold them accountable, writes the DA's Mondli Zondo in response to Ryno Geldenhuys' claims that the party is hypocritical
He goes on to mention several internal disputes and cases within the DA, saying the party is inconsistent in applying “its own rules to its own members”.He rightfully cites our claim that the “DA [is] the only party that remembers and practices the late president Nelson Mandela’s vision for one South Africa for all” but then goes off the tracks when he analyses this claim in light of internal disputes and disciplining party members.For us, this is not just a slogan.
This was the vision of Madiba, and this is the vision of the DA – the only party that still holds onto and practices the ideals of Madiba. Many of the other political parties subscribe to racial mobilisation, but one just has to look at our lists to realise it reflects the diversity of our country: black, white, Indian and coloured people.Promising young men and women, veteran politicians, experts and community workers are all on our lists.
It is very pertinent that these people are mentioned – their cases precisely represent the fair society we envision.We follow due process and let procedures and the law take its course.
