Democratic Alliance

Democratic Alliance South Africa's second-largest political party. Committed to building one nation with one future. 🇿🇦

The Democratic Alliance (DA) is the official opposition and the second-largest political party in South Africa. Whilst the DA’s origin dates as far back as 1959 when Helen Suzman’s Progressive Party was formed to oppose apartheid head-on, the Party as we know it today was formed on 24 June 2000. Since its formation, the DA has grown substantially – from an opposition party to a party of government

. The Party runs a tight ship in municipal and provincial governments across the country; and it is the watchdog of democracy, ceaselessly holding those in power to account in Parliament and through the courts. Currently, millions of South Africans experience some form of DA governance! In addition to the Western Cape Province, the DA currently governs in over 25 municipalities, including South Africa’s legislative capital of Cape Town. The DA strives to be a home for all South Africans – working every day to protect your right to earn a living, love who you want, say what you believe, develop your talents, and pursue your dreams!

🚨Just 10 days after the DA exposing a shortage of r**e and DNA kits and demanding urgent action, over 6 000 DNA kits have now been delivered to police stations across Cape Town.

But too many stations are still without the equipment needed to collect vital evidence.

We continue to fight for justice, for better convictions, and a SAPS that operates effectively.

🇿🇦 MUST WATCH: Let us show the best of SA, not the worst! We must reject violence. - DA Leader, Geordin Hill-Lewis

"South Africa’s deepest problem is not a vulnerable person selling vegetables on a corner who happens to not be born here. It is an economy that does not grow, a state that does not work, and a government that has failed to create jobs, secure our borders, fight crime and deliver basic services.

That is the real work: jobs, growth, safety, clean government, well managed migration and a state that works.

I call on every South African: do not be drawn into hatred. Do not share messages that inflame fear.

Stand for your country by standing for the best of what it means to be South African, by standing for peace, order and the Constitution."
