Beautiful conversation ... we need more critical discussions around the intellectual compositions of political parties ... it cannot be enough to shout vote but no plan is in place.
Majority of black people do not understand politics, as a result...when it it comes to voting, they don't vote for ideas(manifestos of parties) they vote for people/political leaders. Popularity wins every time in place of actions.
Populist leaders and parties are all the rage in Europe and USA right now just as they have been in parts of the world. Demagoguery is as old as electoral politics. Trump is literally running a cult. The cognitive dissonance is palpable. Heard about Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Mao etc? Not long ago the Philippines had Rodrigo Duterte and Brazil had Jair Bolsonaro, Cuba had Castro and Venezuela had Chavez. Manifestos are largely for chattering classes & policy hawks. Many people have an emotional response to voting. You think people who voted for apartheid and bantu education ‘understood’ politics? Think again.
It has nothing to with race. Same goes for other countries including democracies like the US. Donald Trump is not winning votes solely on the basis of policy.
Then you get to miss gems like this: "The EFF government will restructure the ship docking arrangement such that international vessels offload their goods into our domestic fleet in the Ocean. Only domestic vessels will be allowed to dock in our harbours." EFF got some super technology that will allow it to shift hundreds of tonnes of cargo from one boat to the next? Even though you need specialised equipment on docks to do this today?
@SMWX, I've never read a manifesto before, but how Ms Dooms broke it down, I think she should be the one presenting all the manifestos... What a presentation, Tessa! 👏👏👏 I'm all ears
It's important to understand the ideological direction of the 2 parties when reading the manifestos. Their policy documents go into more detail on the parts you had issues witb. Manifesto is like an advertisement for those who don't have time to read all the documents. DA's ideal state is an improved United States. Very hands off government that focuses on infrastructure, policing and foreign policy. They see the state creating the rules of the game and determining penalties rather than being an active participant. ANC thinks of its self closer to the Asian economics (Korea, Japan, Taiwan etc...) where the State is a key driver of the economy but not soley responsible. The issue is that we haven't really seen the ANC vision come together due to endemic corruption plaguing the state. We haven't seen the DA vision either since they have never had control over key infrastructure like rail, electricity and policing which are crucial to enforcing the rules of the game.
Tessa the EFF have manifestos written in another language, sotho, nguni, tsonga and venda. its manifestos outline the strategic plan bases on each items job, education, etc.
EFF manifesto is filled with contradictions and idealisations, far too unrealistic to be considered achieveable. Not to mention, it's a communist manifesto!!
Brilliant analysis , thank you Tessa. The education gap in this regard is a litmus opportunity for a diverse and deepened politics in SA. This may not be our CHANGE WE NEED as highlighted by the analysis. Some way to go. Communitism is a must
I think the right to work is crucial. I know there will be some abuse against workers, but to be unemployed is mind bending. You become hopeless and mired in a pit of learned helplessness. There are people in this country approaching 40 who has never worked in their lives, and in fact now needs to save for their pension. If you can work as an intern, at least you can show the experience on your CV. I also disagree that the EFF's election manifesto is too long. As long as they dont use jargon and lingo only suitable for academics, its a useful reference for someone who is for example torn between a vote for the PAC and the EFF. I like your outfit by the way. Very fashionable.
I think what you missed with the EFF manifesto is the CONTENT PAGE. As a voter, you want a content page that has what affects you, then you go and read what the EFF promises on that issue. It's not about reading the whole 250 pages but it's about having something for everyone.
Exactly, The EFF has a contents page that highlights many different socio-economic issues which allows the reader to identify ideologies/segments they most resonate with.
EFF manifesto is littered with propaganda that will appeal to anyone and everyone. Purely a work of fiction, it is far too unrealistic to be considered achievable :/
How will that work, the commonality might be that they are all ‘descent and mean well’ but they are ideologically different. That collegiality might work in a government of national unity for example because it has a very short shelf life but as a party It will be a grid locked and they will struggle to agree on any meaningful program, leaving all members and supporters dissatisfied. ANC has over the years positioned itself as centre-left party but in its tent has largely left wing constituency and the DA has positioned itself as a centre-right party but has an obsession trying to court a right wing minority.
Thank you Tessa - You raise some excellent points. I would love to hear your views on The Organic Humanity Movement's (OHM) manifesto; I think that you and the founder of OHM Lauren Evanthia share similar views on the current electoral system; especially when it comes to exposing the flaws of democracy.
Great insights and a much needed analysis of both manifesto's. The ANC's problem has never been its policies (beyond a few more recent ones) but its implementation of them or lack thereof. I'd argue we need to hold our parties to higher standards and move beyond the idea that their main role is keeping us alive and well. Their job should be to get out of the way and facilitate processes that enable their constituency to thrive.
Eish, listening to this wonderful Lady, you can understand South Africa 🇿🇦 is full of proper young people that can lead the country. There's no need to keep the Madalas sleeping in Parliament
I agree with the point that political parties must communicate their manifesto in other official languages because of society composition. EFF manifesto might be "long," but this should not be a negative analysis because people are not expected to read it at once and might choose a particular issue that they think is more important to know its solution. The reason for the long EFF manifesto is exactly because of consultation and aspirations of people in society and not only the party members. I look forward to EFF manifesto analysis. Ayeye
To add to your point, there's a short version (abridged) of the EFF manifesto. It's a summary of every section and it's also in Zulu but no other language tho
I think you've started something that we should have been doing since 30 something years ago! We really do have a bad manifesto culture as African people, not just South Africa alone! I really don't understand why manifestos are not mandated to be issued a year before elections and testing done against voters to have the right to vote before elections.
The think the real question lies with how we can simplify and conventionalise political literacy for the common South Africa (most especially South African youth). This can be accomplished in several ways, with what I believe to be the most effective being through foundational education (both primary and secondary), through the means of subjects like Life Orientation, holding government funded political, public conventions, tasking news stations (and other public broadcasters) with providing enlightening socio-political discussion segments (that are objective by nature), and so one. The intention is to normalise political discourse, and engender a societal-wide political affinity and disposition, especially from a younger age, which will help counter act the general sense of political apathy that is rampantly persisting amongst the youth.
Good talking points Tessa . I have a question , why do you think it’s soo important for these parties to keep healthy individuals dependent on government grants. Why can’t the manifesto lay out clear pathways which will create job opportunities for the young and healthy South Africans rather than handouts. These handouts are killing the young and healthy generation and it makes people to depend on handouts. This is killing the nation. Let the manifesto talk about Boarder, economy, safety and job opportunities. All these years these parties comes with these beautiful manifestos but nothing comes to pass .
Hope the DA sees this, they can learn a few things. If they can act positive to criticism and improve then that would be good, i don't see the ANC doing that.
"34.19" Labour costs. This is the main reason why the jobless rate will not go down but increase further. Remember, the entrepreneur is a job creator. He or she requires labour based on demand from the market. With the advent of artificial intelligence, more young people unfortunately will stay at home. The government needs to introduce policies that encourage investment, both local and foreign (reducing the tax rate as an example), push for new national heroes (South Korea and China have businesses that were given privileges to succeed) whose companies are export driven towards the African continent. At the same time the cost of living must be reduced so that workers can live off their wages. All this requires meticulous studies and strategies but most of all it requires people willing to implement the policies.
Just to summarize everything she said basically is that the DA’s main priority is the rich or atleast people that can afford themselves and the ANC on the other hand just takes advantage of the disadvantaged majority by offering vague policies that they can never account for😅.
Only 1 month 109 companies have closed down in south including financial services.where r we heading?the way u vote dont blame anyone for the outcome..
I agree with you 💯 people should stop voting because they know that face, they must vote for what they want changed in the country 🙏 they keep giving their votes to the wrong party that is the problem causing loadshedding. Unemployment and the list goes on 😢😢
The ANC should take these analysis by Tessa as a red flag. The main goal of the ANC during its formation was to achieve a democratic society and the driver for this goal was Black Consciousness through which Black people would be empowered to the same competitive level as White people. If the analyst thinks that there is very little difference between the ANC and DA manifesto then it means that the ANC has lost Black Consciousness as its driver. Financial gains of most Black people under Ramaphosa ANC have been reversed. Ramaphosa is more interested in pleasing the White people.
In the era of coalition governments loading…manifestos will be a source of disappointment & chains because coalition agreements & pragmatism will take precedence.
The 1 for ANC was so powerful, it is more of black people. It is more of developing own people. I won't tell much about DA because I heard their John preaching about Anc
We would be a stronger nation if focus was on developing all citizens … united we stand divided we fall The focus must be on building a strong capable nation with good morals and values
What was powerful about the ANC manifesto? Isn’t what they have promised under Mbeki, Zuma and Thuman Mina? Nothing powerful when you repeat the same nonsense for 15 years. I‘m not sure how old you are but I hope you realised how anc is playing with people’s emotions and time.
The ANC should be telling us what are they going to do they should add new not starting fresh we look at young people they tried did not qualify for the NSFAS and those they were in university I'm afraid they did not return to get finished the system kicked them out of university's or colleges ❤
EFF manifesto is also written in Isizulu 🤧🤧🤧🤧 at least give credit where's due🤞💯 The reason of EFF manifesto being that long is because they tried to put in detail every department of how they want to make changes, that's basically what will expected of them in each department 🤞💯 People have been asking for manifesto with timeliness, now that the EFF did that, then people want to claim is not possible when they did their research on what is happening and what is to be done.
Why can't the ANC not concentrate on the villages, up lift the people,they can help with food gardening building roads, ensure that the villages have decent housing, create a lifeline for the people. Their houses are far apart,they can use these open land spaces and create small village farms. Instead of people sitting and waiting for hand outs. I which these leaders that comes from villages can go out there and help the people in need. Bring the villages together and help. Reach out to the people.
It makes sence, ANC only knows the villages when they need their votes 😁😞 after that they forget about the poor people 😭😭😔 it's only by the grace of God that this people survive 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I can't believe how untalented our politicians are, its suprising that a weak ANC can still outsmart all these political parties. DA refuses to transform itself from a minority party to a majority party. EFF has potential but it feels like a one man band, Action SA has lost momentum even before they get into parliament, how does Mashaba partner with the DA and FF+? Two parties that fund and back Cape Independence. PA is great i would like Gayton as premier of Western Cape,
@@nomnom103 without malema i dont think EFF would have the same appeal, i dont think Malema can be challenged as president and if thats the case how would you measure his performance, who holds him accountable? EFF needs to establish itself outside of Malema if its to have staying power, 20 years from now Juju will still be CIC representing the youth
Sizwe, why do you always speak about Action SA and PA in a condescending tone? I hope you'll analyze their manifestos also like you do with others. It's only fair. Or does pops not want you to give them free publicity?
Manifesto is just words used by political parties to explain how best they are but not explain concretely with surity that what they say is what people shall get that is a loud voice from empty minds looking for the highest paying job
Hey, love this content but i feel if you're trying to reach the youth those (those in their 20's) RUclips is not the best platform. They're on tik tok, not great for long form content.
What she is missing about the employment section of the DA is this will allow young people to gain employment experience that will enable them to apply for better positions. It will also give them an opportunity to possible impress there employer and promote them with better salary and more responsibility. Ask any young person and they will tell you that they just want a foot in the door to prove themselves and the DA stance will provide this. That extra money could also provide a platform to start a small business, so many possibilities with just a small opportunity but you skip all of that . You say they need to work to live ,how do you live with no job and a 350 grant?
Anc promised freedom and it delivered. People must admit it, we dont want freedom we want people in leadetship that will baby sit us. Anc has left us to fend for ourselves(given us freedom) and now we are crying for people that will baby sit us. Apartheit was the best baby sitter we've had so far hence people say it was better than what the Anc has given us.
There is no freedom with out economic freedom. Yes they won us freedom … but threw us under the bus when it comes to economics and our natural resources that can help build our country and economy, we own nothing !!!!
The role of a government is give the people a stable foundation in order to pursue their own freedom. This includes quality education, safety, health care etc and in south africa maintenance of our infrastructure. Haven't done their job since 2007 those guys.
I’m a second year student, but your argument is not valid with the greatest respect. How many people can really say they are free, I mean just at the cost of living? More than half of this country is living in poverty, this ANC of yours may have “freed” us from Apartheid, but have they really? No person of color owns a bank in this country or insurance company. Today we still see many profitable industries in this country that are dominated by the minority. 18 million people receive some form of social welfare in this country, is that really freedom? Tinstwalo is unemployed, struggling to make ends meet, tired of looking for a job, tired of not having her struggles as a citizen being brought to the fore and is extremely frustrated of all that’s happening in this country. So if you classify that as “freedom” then yes they have done the job extremely well. I’m a 2000 and I’d like to think that we don’t give a damn about what they did 30 years ago, what are they doing today? They have collapsed a lot of SOE’s in this country that where in working order when they inherited them. I think the truth is that they were a liberation movement and nothing more. Time and time again they have shown us that they can’t lead because they are to consumed by greed, incompetence and a sense of seriousness and accountability. As a black person I cannot fathom that many people died so they could have the opportunity they have now to lead, the least they could do is make sure they don’t squander it, but we can all determine how they have performed. And I don’t think any sane adult would like be dependent on a government to get by, but that’s just me.
Even though I never during Apartheid I can assure it was not as rosy as you make it sound. Do you understand what you are saying with the “Apartheid” was better? People being excluded forcefully from participating in the economy was a good thing😮?

You are spot on about the use of local languages, it has to happen. The focus on big stadiums to proof their numbers is not good enough.

We have reviewed the EFF manifesto after it was launched 2 weeks ago. Check it out on the channel 😄
EFF have an 8 page abridged manifesto, k?
What she is missing about the employment section of the DA is this will allow young people to gain employment experience that will enable them to apply for better positions. It will also give them an opportunity to possible impress there employer and promote them with better salary and more responsibility. Ask any young person and they will tell you that they just want a foot in the door to prove themselves and the DA stance will provide this. That extra money could also provide a platform to start a small business, so many possibilities with just a small opportunity but you skip all of that . You say they need to work to live ,how do you live with no job and a 350 grant?
A bit late for this don't you think?
I needed to remind myself that you are for Rise Mzansi. It’s difficult to listen to you objectively.
You are comparing two right wing organizations
Poor Podcast and bias. Imagine a politician masquerading as potlitical analyst
All I can see is two purple circumferences with black circular centres 🤷
Stop looking
😂😂
Anc promised freedom and it delivered. People must admit it, we dont want freedom we want people in leadetship that will baby sit us. Anc has left us to fend for ourselves(given us freedom) and now we are crying for people that will baby sit us. Apartheit was the best baby sitter we've had so far hence people say it was better than what the Anc has given us.
There is no freedom with out economic freedom.
Yes they won us freedom … but threw us under the bus when it comes to economics and our natural resources that can help build our country and economy, we own nothing !!!!
The role of a government is give the people a stable foundation in order to pursue their own freedom. This includes quality education, safety, health care etc and in south africa maintenance of our infrastructure. Haven't done their job since 2007 those guys.
I’m a second year student, but your argument is not valid with the greatest respect. How many people can really say they are free, I mean just at the cost of living? More than half of this country is living in poverty, this ANC of yours may have “freed” us from Apartheid, but have they really? No person of color owns a bank in this country or insurance company. Today we still see many profitable industries in this country that are dominated by the minority. 18 million people receive some form of social welfare in this country, is that really freedom? Tinstwalo is unemployed, struggling to make ends meet, tired of looking for a job, tired of not having her struggles as a citizen being brought to the fore and is extremely frustrated of all that’s happening in this country. So if you classify that as “freedom” then yes they have done the job extremely well. I’m a 2000 and I’d like to think that we don’t give a damn about what they did 30 years ago, what are they doing today?
They have collapsed a lot of SOE’s in this country that where in working order when they inherited them. I think the truth is that they were a liberation movement and nothing more. Time and time again they have shown us that they can’t lead because they are to consumed by greed, incompetence and a sense of seriousness and accountability. As a black person I cannot fathom that many people died so they could have the opportunity they have now to lead, the least they could do is make sure they don’t squander it, but we can all determine how they have performed.
And I don’t think any sane adult would like be dependent on a government to get by, but that’s just me.
Even though I never during Apartheid I can assure it was not as rosy as you make it sound. Do you understand what you are saying with the “Apartheid” was better? People being excluded forcefully from participating in the economy was a good thing😮?

Please don't use the term Shack it's derogatory. Be enlightened use the term " Self built home " Do you have the ability to build your own home ?
Tell it like it is, don't sugar coat it, people are living in horrible conditions, let's say it!!
I don't like this comparison, it makes it seem like it's a two-horse race
That is a horrible looking dress.
🤔Not a nice comment! I think she's beautiful and beautifully dressed!
