South Africa is facing guaranteed failed state-status. In 2024, the Western Cape has a choice whether it will join the rest of South Africa to become a failed African state.
The DA believes it can export good governance to the rest of South Africa and will use the Western Cape as the main basis to form a coalition with the ANC against the will of their voters who will be gradually and more forcibly excluded from the country over time.
The Democratic Alliance is fully committed to remove that opportunity for their core voters because it believes it can export good governance to the rest of South Africa and will use the Western Cape as the main basis to form a political union with the ANC after the General Election in 2024.
The party was founded in November 2023 in response to Western Cape premier Alan Winde denying the Western Cape a referendum on Cape independence in October 2023.
