DA says it was oblivious to bigger cabinet

- President Cyril Ramaphosa has added two ministries to his cabinet and announced 33 ministers. The Democratic Alliance has been allocated six ministerial posts, with its leader John Steenhuisen leading the Agriculture ministry. DA’s federal chairperson Helen Zille says they did not know that the president was going to increase the cabinet size.
Tune into Newzroom Afrika DStv channel 405 for more.
If the ANC stuck to the agreement regarding proportionality, the ANC would have 12 portfolios. Stop attacking the DA for cabinet size, the ANC is the issue.
Exactly, but the DA should have gotten thirty percent of the governmental POWER according to the GNU, yes? Governmental power has little relation to "number of ministries". A ministry like finance is worth four or more mickey mouse ministries. Yes?
The ANC has 20 ministries. The DA got 6. That is not even close to fair or negotiating in good faith. Not to mention, we got two additional ministries.
What happened to the negotiation power of the moonshot pact ? ANC had only 40% of the votes , yet came away firmly in control as if they got 80% .
You got to feel sorry for anybody coming across Helen...if you don't have your ducks in a row, she'll maje an idiot of you. Many criticize her ways, but she knows her stuff and stands her ground. An exceptionally gifted politician.
Only if you're an idiot to begin with. You must be weak to conclude such about Helen. statement of intent does not supersede the constitution. It is more like a company policy, which essentially is not above the LRA.
the BEST in SA and yet shes always sidelined...
...yip, many enjoy mocking her physical appearance and age. But they have nothing to offer which even comes close to her ability.@@RG-jr8ym
She’s brilliant
So brilliant that she missed that agriculture and land reform split its 2 seperate ministries and electricity ministry was added last year
This reporter is deliberately keeping himself stupid by not wanting to understand the answers Helen is giving,.hes more interested in trying to trap her in her answers,
Than the actual truth.
Exactly
That’s Aldrian for you😂, he’s always like that
These types of questions are only good when posed to black leaders, right? And surely, the news anchors would be praised by now.
Aldrin sampear is a ANC card carrying cadre . He was vile on SAfm radio station.
He's a fool
Well done Helen Zille. Your intelligent, honest and transparent answers had Adrian look a bit uncomfortable at times.
He looks a bit foolish and sounds like he is fumbling around in the dark
@@janinemuller7502I think Adrian like other journalists they work for a certain agenda so their interviews are calculated and they must try and be polite as possible,
When they interview certain politicians they are so condescending and disrespectful on their approach
You see this everywhere in the world in America, Fox News have a certain way they interview Democrats and a different way they interview Republicans
interesting
i real don't understand which part of interview were he didn't ask a relevant,, DA didnt get what they want and now your Madam cant answer with the same toon anymore,,, and you cant tell that she is not happy with what she got and the is nothing she can do
The media has been so infiltrated by the ANC that the presenters are now also talking like the ANC egg-zeggu-teev.
As I have mentioned before, many of these journalists who interview Helen, are seemingly ill-informed. In recent times, I have began to dislike Aldrin's line of questioning, especially toward DA officials. Does he know that Helen was an investigative journalist, and very good at that before entering politics?
Yes, she was a journalist before, and she got angry when Sky News referred DA as a white lead party 😅
evidently he does not know or knows but think she old & senile.. poor dude..
Why does the DA keep getting attacked when the ANC has been incredibly greedy and has deviated from proportionality.
Because the ANC makes sure DA gets adverse criticism 🙄
@@yvettedurbangirlsaclearly
Lets just ignore that the DA (Zille) keeps going on these interviews and since the ANC is taking far less interviews they (Media) are instead turning their attention to the DA. I could be overthinking it but it's better than playing victim 🥴
@@user-oi7vx1in5x ANC is still on the throne, period.
No-one is attacking da, its a noisy barking dog that. Knows it's fighting its last kicks.
THE ANC NEVER DID ANYTHING.
Helen is a very experienced politician
Very experienced
Hypocrite you mean
Racist oppressive selfish parasitic opportunistic hypocritical you mean??
The ANC had only 40% of the vote and yet they emerged with over 80% of the power !
The DA negotiation failed miserably
We love & respect u madam Helen Zille...finally we get to work, DA all the way
🤣 BIGGEST DECEPTION...YOU KEEP BELIEVING THAT! 🤣🤣
I love you Gogo Hellen. May God gives you more strength. You love our country unconditionally. Long live DA ❤
Well done Helen.!!!
Clever black
I agree with Zille in that BEE has benefitted only the few politically connected. She however conveniently 8:13 forgets that this was the intention or strategy that anc and da and its crannies desired to be outcome of BEE so that it can be declared having failed and introduce the strategy that says it is OK for Blacks to remain employees, despite of potential. Stupid and greedy anc bought into this grand idea as they have bought into this grand coalition between themselves and and. Honestly there is no gnu here. The country is not in crisis. It is merely the outcome of vision less leadership which has been arrogant for far too long to pay genuine attention to the economic plight of the very people they have been calling their people for years.
Only time will tell...
Stockholm syndrome?
Iron Lady 💙💙💙💙
It’s giving Thatcherism. Brilliance at peak
I am not an ANC nor DA voter , but Helen Zille would have been a good president.
Can't agree more!!
In Europe or India, not in AFRIKA
Don't know enough about her but am curious about how she performed when she was Western Cape Premier.
She will be a president via back door or in your dreams.
Exactly!
Go for it DA...show them ..ANC...how to govern.
But she’s pulling back on everything she believes in 😂, interviewer exposed her nicely
Cabinet for a smaller country should never be above 20.. just creates a mess of overspending and no accountability.
Just overcrowding the cabinet for nothing
True
Thats what the DA voted for
@@fin2643 but then 7:35 😅
I wish this Aldrin would interrogate some of the corrupt political members from the ANC like this! He is obviously a comrade supporter. VTSEK
Helen Zille is so intelligent....let's hope the ANC can play ball as there are signs the ANC is taking charge unilaterally!!! We can only pray for integrity to reign.
Very little integrity in ANC
@@cobus76 In politics there is none
🤣 all politicians...that MUST SAY A LOT!
@@easygoingdevilfan1387 I'm not sure, you are quoting a typical view. I have a positive outlook for this country. Let's hope for the best and do the little bit we each can.
Politics always involves compromise.
Let's see if DA is actually capable of working with others.
South Africa matters, not overblown egos.
DA have important posts, now they must deliver.
The reporter tried his utmost to find fault in the DA. Ziller showed her experience in putting him to bed. Please put SA first
The President decided to increase the size of the cabinet without discussing it with the DA. Now it's the DA's fault! And why doesn't the interviewer do some research before asking silly questions. He obviously doesn't understand the complexity of the issues.
He should not be interviewing 🙄🙄
He asks questions for the public to understand, not for himself.
@@lanas.6234I don't like him at all... He has his own not-so-hidden agenda.
This was a mere question of principle, why would you allow to serve in that cabinet if your principle is opposite?
The cabinet is too big. The DA got the short end of the stick.
As they should
@@Lesoli.T_E.M. ANC doesn't deserve more also though...
Good for you Helen. You are brilliant!
😂😂
Very intelligent woman and knows what shes talking about .
Gotcha journalism is so weak and disrespectful to the audience.
Haha this guy could not get his way , Helen is to smart and to honest. 🎉 well done Helen. You know actually what agenda they trying to push. And we won't have it.
Helen is always very clear, and unambiguous. She says it like it is. I admire her and am always ready to hear her opinion.
Why are the DA getting all these questions? The president appointed the cabinet not the DA.
Aldren forgetting that the promise of a smaller cabinet would only be possible if JOHN WAS PRESIDENT.
Steenwool voted for anc. Knowing very well how anc operates...
Who is Xoli
Helen we are so proud of you. You're an incredible woman specially sent by God
She is an amazing woman
Very articulate in her skills and educated
Absolutely love this woman! Eldrid is just pathetic.
Love you Helen. I actually feel relieved with the DA in government. Hold them all accountable.
They are not going to last. Watch this space.
DA has too few portfolios of substance. To hold ANC accountable they'd need security cluster portfolios. But then.. someone joked we'd have to fire half the Parliament and ministers, dissolve the Parliament and run new elections))
@arthurmaredi8040 doubting Thomas. Believe and have faith. This did not come to us accidentally.
I'm not a Zillie fan, but if Cyril expanded cabinet as president that's got nothing to do with DA especially when he didn't tell anyone else.
💯
Anc cadre in this 6 ministries are in trouble,now they must ready to be fired
Officials in departments no more parties
Agriculture is Super important, thats food!
ANC doesn't think so....which shows their IQ.
The DA is the most competent and trustworthy Polical Group in South in like ever 💙💙
You absolutely right
Well stated
Aldrin you digging yourself a big hole.
Aldrin do you know who you dealing with, she is going to drown you, love her or hate her she this is her strength.
Helen explains the obvious clearly.
Thank you Helen, for your honesty. They stuck us in the back, but you've got this.
Dom Doos !!!! Who the hell are THEY ?????
Look at khayelitsha, Nyanga, Gugulethu, Cape Flats and look the lives of black and coloured people in Western cape. I must say she's a good Hypocrite and liar
@@SidumoNgetu what is supposed to happen, please tell us mos.
@@SidumoNgetu Not from what I see and hear.
@@truth-Hurts375 Sjoe, who are you talking to oom. Maar jy is baie kwaad.
Well done and congratulations on the 6 ministries and deputies. You can make a difference
Aldrin trying so hard to let Helen look bad,Try again later ,your not up to the task Aldrin..🤪
Yes Aldrin keep your day job one of the worst interviewer ever
Helen already looks bad...
Aldrin thinks he knows more than he actually does. Helen showed him up
Was this an education seminar? Helen seemed to have to educate Aldrin on most policies and procedures. Aldrin should be more informed or perhaps he is just trying to be clever. A bit childish in my opinion.
We would like to see DA holding the ANC accountable for every ministry to deliver services
Shhhhhhh mnxim
Western cape is dead look at black and coloured communities where zillie is in charge for many years, she's a saleswomen of hypocrisy and Propaganda.
Yes... Every cent that is spent needs to be accounted for. (Say no more to corruption).
@@miguel--jesus
All politicians are thieves nje even the DA
Don't get too excited and show White Supremacist tendencies otherwise DA will be gone in less than a year.
Can we please have journalist that's not openly pro ANC
He is anyway no match for her, nor the ANC. They can't be sleeping so well anymore with all the skeletons in their closets.
@@cobus76Aldrin is blatantly racist. He should grind his axe elsewhere.
So true... Perhaps he wants a dictatorship here... he should go to Russia and see how those people are living since he loves talking about Foreign policy so. much too...
@@user-bf7ut1mz2h yeah all of the ANC and EFF should go to China, then they will see what racism is, and being treated like second-class citizens. Then they will change their tune on the virtues of the communism dreamworld they live in. And secondly the Chinese are very intelligent and hardworking people - they don't like people that get paid for doing nothing, like many of these politicians. It will be a very rude awakening ;-)
Otherwise they should educate themselves watching the channel "Concerned Citizen" to save themselves some embarrassment :-) Some of them now call her a 'prostitute" - lol
NO the ANC won't allow it.
Who ever interview Helen,she always comes out on top, very very knowledgeable
She is right on BEE is not benefiting poor South Africa only to enrich those in power . The policies that in place don't create jobs she also right there and even the constitution need to be changed to be South African
Trouble is, we haven't had BBEEE etc, but 'CD', Cadre Deployment, which meant they could put any idiot in to do a job they totally were not qualified for.
Get a more experienced and unbiased person to interview Helen next time
How does he overlook the complete failure under the ANC in the last 30 years
@@brucethackwell6686 He seems very biased and confrontational, which isn't a good look.
DA has been failing too
Failure 😂😂😂
Very confrontational. He would never ask Gwede or Fikile questions about the failure of the corrupt ANC.
@sophon238 the DA hasn't stolen billions in daylight like the ANC. The DA is not perfect but they are clear on the mandate. DA don't have scandals like Arms deal, VBS, State Capture, Bankrupt SOEs, Tender Fraud, incompetent cadres running powerful portfolios into the ground, 27000 murders a year etc...
No. You are missing the point. Hellen is saying their ministers will add value by delivering in their portfolios. They still report to the president.
We need EVERYONE to play nicely in this sandbox.
Please turn this ship around🙏🏻
Helen doesn't play in a sandbox. She'll build them for children when she has nothing better to do in the serious real world of being an adult amongst adults ❤
I will keep on saying that Helen is a master at her game. I honestly enjoy her interviews because she will always tell it how it is!
@@wayneerasmus7108 master of her game ?!! by propping up the ANC with those rubbish positions ???
And in smart way😂😂😂
@@Gerrard_yardy gan stem jy DAN MAAR EFF want ek glo nie jys wakker nie of jy weet nie wat aangaan nie.
As die DA MEER STEMME GEHAD HET HET HULLE N GROTER BEK GEHAD OM MEE TE KON BAKLEI. 20% gee jou maar net net genoeg om te werk met wat daar is.
As die rolle om gedraai was sou die DA die stupid rolle vir die ANC gegee het en die lekker rolle self gevat het. 🤦🙆
EXACTLY... she is honest about what direction the DA is going and she knows her stuff. You can never get her into a corner ... she does that to you😂
Master of her game yet she didnt get the 30 percent she demanded...🤣🤣🤔
Always dynamic Helen 🎉
👍 Helen tough questions answered very well👍🇿🇦
BEE explained
Ramaphosa amassed his billions through black empowerment deals and business interests in numerous top companies.
RAMAPHOSA is in the best position to explain BBBEE......
What doesn’t Adrian get , the DA is not have the majority
Can you do better than the DA??
Aldrin is not professional and the dregs of journalists
This was so difficult to watch! He clearly doesn't understand the difference between asking tough questions and being unprofessional and ignorant. Sho.
@@tertiusferreira4753He is rude and had a personal vendetta... Nothing objective about his questioning. Blatant.
There's no way Aldrin is a serious journalist😅
Let's be honest you can tell how little thought the ANC put into the cabinet by the lack of preparedness being so late. Newsroom Afrika is doing the standard loaded question.
Well done Helen, you speak it the way it is!!
Can this interviewer run the country?? I don't think so!!
The interviewer is making a fool of himself. To suggest that the DA must make deductions when there is a firm agreement on the table is quite frankly ridiculous.
This reporter is an ANC supporter...
for reel i dont like him mxm
Yes he is the questions
One thing about the da ...they the only party with a woman in leadership
He is very dim Helen
The DA is going to utilize its positions to the fullest yho
Helen Zille yster vrou moes Ajunk President gewees het sy praat reguit bravo vir Helen 🎉
Imagine if this woman was the president of RSA we would be a 1st world country in no time!

You crazy 😂
She would fix it in less than a year, if she had full control.
Lies lies
Make her president of the continent 😅
Politics is not for the people, it's self interest period.
Wow this guy demands a lot of patience with his line of questioning!
Jesus he is asking dumb questions
Moron this interviewer
@@MasechabaLekgoaneexplain how? He demands clear answers, holding DA to it’s compromised position such as in 7:35.

Thank you Helen Zille for your hard working and not giving up. You remind me of late Maggie Thatcher!!! Very proud of you.
The start of excuses and shifting of blame!!! Welcome to 5 years of blaming everyone else rather than taking responsibility
Helen Ziller should be in government. A strong no nonsense woman who brings a wealth of knowledge. John Steenhuisen should be Deputy President. No surprise he wasn't given that position.
Unfortunately, the BBBEE does not address the injustices of the past. It is a policy that has driven up unemployment and poverty, and created much economic harm.
Except for those who are feeding at the trough!!!They have scored big time at the expense of the poor.
@@cathypotgieter6345At the expense of young white people too... Why leave them out?

@@mossfairy3060Matric heading the graduates😂😂
@@mossfairy3060Minister has a matric cert. The team holding PhD in agriculture 😂😂😂
😂😂😂 we are dealing with politicians here, nothing new and we must mark the checklist during ANC time and after. It's learning curve and as long as the policy doesn't specify a minimum qualifications requirement for politicians to hold ministries then a grade 1 person will rule the PhD qualified people.
The political system tried to copy the Kingdomship system broad by God but failed dismally to master it hence they'll recycle ♻️ leadership each 5 years hence they'll forever take millions of years to bring simple change.
Not everything is perfect but the UAE 🇦🇪 Kingdom is a perfect example that if you have the right tools and cultural laws you'll factor the change in few years.
Now recently South Africa 🇿🇦 has discovered the oil 🛢 and gas but because of private ownership, the nation will not see the benefits of such resources. I am not only talking about jobs rather the system which a privately ran government won't be able to change the country effectively.
I do not believe a word, we are not fools anymore. They know exactly what is happening.
Don't argue with Ms Zille and try put her on the spot my deary. You talking to an ironwomen sonny
This interviewer needs to be more astute too!!!!
Good interview. Aldrin and Helen had a clear and direct (no bullshit) discussion. Thankfully there are some good people still in South Africa.
I agree!!! Smaller Cabinet for South Africa PLEASE!!! Just more money going to "useless" positions INSTEAD OF THE PEOPLE!!!😊
Helen would have fixed this country in 2 years,and they know it,but they have to eat and thats more important than the country
Very unprofessional, biased questioning
I'm happy with Helen's responses.
It's a pity that the questions from the journalists in this country are always framed to drive a certain narrative.
It's tired!
I'm starting to like Helen yazi!😂😂😂😂
Do you not know who you are talking to, unless you are sure of your question, don't say anything.
The way Aldrin is asking questions is really antagonistic - I appreciate difficult questions need to be asked, but he asks them in with an inflection of sarcasm / aggravating tone.
BBBEE.Its more like a BB gun which doesnt work
This interviewer has no clue 🙄🙄
Did the ANC not do the same at CODESA????? bodes well for honesty and transparency in the GNU........
Thanks for schooling this uninformed guy, Helen
Ur mad don't start with schooling ur John must go back to school.
John doesn't even have matric
She’s a hypocrite, comprising on everything DA campaigned on 😅
Aldrin is far more informed than u 😅U taking chances, right away from SA FM if U are not aware
This guy is aiming for a take it or leave it concession from Helen. Here is a journalist playing politics. Stick to the news buddy.
💯
ANC did what Zanu PF did to Chamisa's city councils, by removing excecutive powers to the positions they hold and give the decision making powers to a Zanu PF top boss, making the opposition useless in decision making and service delivery. Poor African democracy and politics.
