  • “Ons sal self!”

    As an English-speaking South African I appreciate the example some Afrikaners are setting us and other westerners in learning from past mistakes, repenting of past sins, preserving western values, and passing on the Christian faith and virtues to future generations despite opposition.

Why the ANC can never fix South Africa | Dawie Roodt | TPP#72
Q: Is it correct that a lot of what we see in South Africa are fundamentally bad ideas?
Yes, it's not simply a matter of good ideas that were not properly applied; many of the ideas themselves are fundamentally flawed.

The Western Cape has a unique historical voting pattern, indicating a desire for different governance compared to ANC-led provinces.
