The party's interim leader reiterated the DA's calls for the lockdown to end, saying it was becoming far too costly for the economy.

Steenhuisen reiterated the DA's calls for the lockdown to end, saying it was becoming far too costly for the economy. The party has been controversial in its calls for the lockdown to be stopped. Steenhuisen said some of the regulations have no proven connection to decreasing the spread of the virus.

The main three issues the DA will be challenging deal with the Disaster Management Act regulations pertaining to exercise, an 8pm curfew on movement and the restrictions on e-commerce. An 8pm curfew means no citizen is allowed to travel after that time until 5am unless one has a permit. He said the hard lockdown currently implemented should be ended and replaced with a "smart lockdown" that would see most South Africans return to work.

Usually people buy summer clothes for the next season because it's on massive sales. The retailer needs to get rid of excess stock in order to make space. This is an practice is beneficial for people who cannot afford the usual prices. Collective misdirection of the public's focus from the real issues. Please stop this nonsequential politicking rubbish and get to work on the real issues like feeding the poor, improving infrastructure and efficiencies.
