'I am passionate about the rights of the minority and I am an environmental activist.'

"They need to relax. We should relax and if my conduct is somewhat unacceptable then we would have to take it from there."

Speaking of his goals and the social concerns he wants to raise in the house, he said he is passionate about environmental issues and feels that not nearly enough is being done to address them. He also aims to advocate for"the recognition of the minority". "I am passionate about the rights of the minority and I am an environmental activist. There is not enough expertise on such matter in parliament and I intend to be the person who sees to the needs of our environment."

The FF+ showed massive improvement in the recent elections. In 2014 the party secured only 165,715 votes but grew to 414,864 in 2019. On social media, people weighed in on the news, expressing concerns that the"grandson of an apartheid architect" would be referred to as an"honorable member" of the house, while some called for the dismantling of Orania, which was founded Boshoff's father, Prof Carel Boshoff in 1993.

Ordinary South Africans must elect president not MPs, says ADPWhen the sixth Parliament resume, a new president would be voted by party representatives. Not me. I elect everyone who represents me. Time and money but worth it. What a stupid argument this is. The President is installed in order to implement policy that has been crafted by the ruling party otherwise when he assumes his position he will develop his own policy. Now the ordinary people have no clue as to what is contained in policy docs
