    She makes a lot of sense to me.... I wish women are given a chance in our govt economy and corporations... They are more than capable of doing a great job.

    I respect you vision. Uniting this beautiful country is very important. We are tired of listening to parties on TV that devided this country and are still dividing us.They confuse children while they are enjoying life underground. I wish you all the luck my sister. You love your country. South Africa first.

    All DA policies but the DA gets criticized for saying the exact same things she does , she literally said ideologically she with the DA.

    I believe Colleen is a pragmatic leader. I really wish that she and her party would consider affiliating themselves with other like minded parties. I believe that she has plenty of energy to offer with the upcoming reconfiguration of the political landscape. The problem currently is that the smaller(parties) bright minds are too fragmented.

    As a Joburg resident: Colleen was quite instrumental in removing Mpho Phalatse from office and returning the power back to the ANC-led coalition in exchange for the speaker position. So it's kind of hard to trust her, and her newly found "neoliberal" political views are rather surprising.

    What was missing for me was (1) how are we going to achieve a 24/7 economy if we have loadshedding affecting large parts of almost every single day & water shedding increasing in key economic hubs like JHB (2) proclaiming SARA will achieve the same national vote as the EFF (+/- 10%) is not close to realistic and only speaks to a party on the campaign trail. Some other thoughts were interesting, but not seismic compared to what other smaller parties are trying to differentiate themselves with.

    Colleen has a stunning voice... it has a Winnie Madikizela huskiness.
    With that said, expecting 10% or the votes of 1.8mln sounds delusional... that's how much the EFF got in 2019.
    She was also wrong on female registered voters, which shows a lack of research.
    Then she fired unnecessary shots at Herman Mashaba, previous JHB Mayor and Mmusi Maimane, ex-DA leader... hayi. Sounded weird.
    You may have a lot of female voters but they seem to love voting for men... like female congregants in male-led churches.
    I wish her luck... but I'm not expecting her to get more than 2 seats, if any at all. I wonder who funded them.
    I hope she grows and aligns with other parties or joins an established party.
    Again, her voice is amazing and her confidence is really admirable.

      I respectfully beg to differ with your comment. We are are secular nation i.e. comprising of various religious affiliations as enshrined within our constitution. We are not all Christian. However, that does not necessarily make us all not South African. We are a secular nation that has one goal, and that is to respectfully assure that each S African is treated fairly without fear of judgement.

    I use to be very cynical of Colleen but my mind is changed. Very sober minded woman. However I will still vote ActionSA as they are just as sober minded but have built significant structures nationally with better potential.
