“I think the country needs a new movement. At this point, I don’t believe we need a new political party”: Mmusi Maimane and Herman Mashaba will kick off nationwide meetings with South Africans “about the future and the kind of country we have to build”

It is expected that the new movement will be launched in March.

“I think the country needs a new movement. At this point, I don’t believe we need a new political party – rather, a movement of South Africans who believe in the same values and want to build on those values. “Through it all, I came to the conclusion that political parties and politicians act in their own self-interests as the primary driving force in decision-making, and not in the interest of ordinary South Africans,” said Mashaba on Friday.Maimane said there had been an unbelievable response to the campaign, adding that South Africans had realised that the existing political parties had failed them.

The United Democratic Front was a movement before 1994 and did not participate in politics, said Maimane.

What is movement

We need a movement with the aim to remove party politicians from parliament and replace them with competent public servants. Public servants who was elected by the people of SA, not deployed by their party. We don't need millionaires and billionaires to 'govern' us.
