Its real privilege to be part of the SMWX family, this is my university Sizwe.Thanks
One big issue that people are missing when discussing the cabinet allocations is that not all positions hold the same level of power in government. It is not enough to simply look at the total number of cabinet positions, then divide them according to the number of seats held by each party. Look at it like a bushel of apples. Within that bushel there will be large apples and there will be smaller ones. When handing out “fair shares,” the weight of each apple must be considered. You cannot give one party ten of the largest apples in the bushel and call it fair because 10 small apples went to someone else. Instead of looking at the number of cabinet positions each party is being awarded, what should be considered is how much control of the country and its affairs each position carries. Numbers do not matter, level of power does. If you look at exactly which positions the DA are demanding and which are actually being offered, in both scenarios, you will notice that the DA will have a great deal of power over the country.
Sizwe man ! Im so happy to see this channel at this level now! 86k views in just 11 hours! Your consistency has really paid off. Love - Day 1 ❤️
SMWX has me watching serious news on a Friday 😅❤
😂
Best comment 🤣 ever ❤
Ay 😂the rand is going down again
@@ethanrogers7457 let it go down baba
This gnu should be called a cpp(cupcake protection program) tbh
Love letters people never voted for this they voted for better lives and speedy service delivery
People did not vote for anything so what!!
Let's no rush things plz
United we all win , DIVIDED WE ALL LOSE...
TIME OUT , NEED RESPONSIBLE PEOPLE , WITH INTEGRITY , TRANSPARENCY...
GOD BLESS OUR COUNTRY , MAY RIGHTEOUSNESS PREVAIL.
Exactly my sentiment 🙏
Yes yes but does this also mean include MK and EFF who represents 24%???
United without 2 major black parties 😂😂😂you must be joking
@@silaskhalishwayoexactky
You are fooling yourself man. White people only care about money, land and power. Start thinking right.
SMWX is far beter to watch then some Dstv programs keep up Doc all the way from Namibia🙏🤘👍
Thank you Dr for your fantastic analysis of the political situation in our country.
Our Governtment needs to put OUR Country first! No outside influences! Our Government needs to understand that they serve our people of South Africa (all of us)! And then they need to realise they are ellected by us! Paid by us! So they should be serving US, all South African's, to ensure all our future and present generations futures!
Yes yes
DA must be given justice so that all ANC members will attend court cases for next 5 years 😅😅😅😅
😂😂😂😂😂 iyoooo you killed man day in and day out in court 😅😅😅
That my friend, was a worldclass explanation. Got my eye on this guy. Forsure going places.
Great content.
Love to see young people take such advantage of digital distribution to make quality additions to the news-media landcape.
Keep it up
With the DA's myriad concessions in mind, the media's coverage of GNU shenanigans has been appalling...constant DA attacks. Great analysis as usual, SMWX.
With all this disagreement the Rand has plunged again, just when I thought the fuel prices will drop.
I really want to ask these leaders to think of the future of SA first !
Open your EARS ANC
I don’t think the DA “climbed down/watered down” anything! They made their demands high on purpose knowing that when they “climb down”, it would actually be more or less, or the EXACT number that they were looking for in the first place! That’s how things work in this world. You put a high price on your property so that there’s room for a lower offer which would be the price that you are looking for in the first place!!!
Exactly my thoughts. DA leadership and their Funders don't play to lose or be embarrassed. DA is controlling the ANC.
Exactly my thoughts 💭
💯
Exactly. I feel the DA is having a field day with these negotiations! They are getting the ANC where they want them to be!
Did you listen to Sizwe? ANC is in a more powerful position. Even with "only" 5 ministries the DA SURELY WILL show their competence and make huge differences to be seen!!! Compare only the roads of Western Cape with other provinces ....
Thank you for the explanation. I believe most South Africans want the country to succeed.
Most of us do want that, the problem is those who control sorry govern us don't want this country to work.
Obviously but not only for a tiny minority settler population as it has been for hundreds of years.
Yeah they can't steal everything if share with DA..You carry on and stay poor@@shafiyaalgiquadra1105
@@shafiyaalgiquadra1105Salaam Alaikum, habibti. We are all settlers in this country, except for the Khoi-San. I say let’s try our best to make this work. For all of us. None of us has a future if the vast majority of us have no jobs, no financial security and no means of providing for our families. We all want the same thing. A decent life. 🇿🇦
@@republic_of_kyleclown 🤡
I always get educated watching your Show
Both the ANC and DA said they want to work together for the betterment of the country. We must hold them to account.
Yes BOTH Including ANC
Sizwe, from my perspective working with whistleblowers the first criterion for success, which is foundational to the other success factors you list, is that those who speak truth to power, especially whistleblowers, are protected, supported and incentivized. You need to have an episode with the whistleblowers I work with to get a reality check on just how deep the rot of corruption goes. We are having to source funding to protect them from other countries to keep them safe and in hiding.
How does one get involved in the perspective. For the lack of a better word or limitation on how I or what I mean. Be part of the organisation as one of the people who have suffered and continue to suffer due to victimisation by those "who think that they rule the world of corruption." And will make sure of that any one who is anti- , shall be silenced at all costs. I would really appreciate someone to contact me regarding this. Unfortunately I can't leave my details on this PUBLIC PLSTFORM. REGARDS. DISGRANTLED CITIZEN
Agree 100%. Assange has just been released after >decade of bureaucratic torture - A healthy democracy can only thrive and survive in a culture of freedom of association, freedom of speech and the active protection of journalists and their sources - Sizwe is doing a sterling job and setting a high bar for journalism in the public interest - kudos and best wishes Sizwe
Make sure Ramaphosa and Steenhuizen listen to your platform.Joe Stephens
We need a government who got integrity, Honesty, responsibility and a government who has true leaders. We are fed up with a government who are only there for their own benefit. We South Africa's people need positive growth in all areas and stop the killing of people in all areas of their lives,: economically, financially and spiritually.
Awesome Dr !! Thanks, Now we know what is happening.
The DA is not outrageous, the ANC agreed to sellout let them deal with it.
You are doing a great job Dr Sizwe , watching you from KwaNdebele.
This analysis was largely unbiased and your opinions reached deeper than those of the legacy media.
Well done, Sizwe.
South Africa can only be saved when the DA take controls of the economy, finances, health, minerals and energy etc.etc
They want to privatize health,SOE'S and Education,well,tht can't inclusive in a society where the majority are living in abject poverty,so,therefore, their policies do not resonate with majority
Dear Sizwe
When rivals are funded by the markets, we shouldn't be surprised to see such tolerance of nonsense. The DA will not walk away nor the ANC, the markets decided this script before it even played out before us. Whatever is happening here and going to to happen, is not for the best interests of the people, these politics stopped being for the people by the people a long time ago. Whatever happens, I don't really care anymore, I just need to do what a man s'got to do for his familia. Its such a waste of everyone's time and money.
They just wanted votes from people to legitimise their leadership. Otherwise this is their game. It is also up to the people to talk to each other and unite and push for different ways.
@@kodwat2134That's so true. But as long as we can't unite beyond these politics, we are not getting anywhere. We also haven't been holding anyone accountable. But soon or later, South Africa we go back to the streets.
I wish they can continue but they not going to win come the next vote.
People don’t understand the importance of markets especially Ina country like SA… a strengthening of the Rand benefits the poor the most. Many wealthier SA’cans have taken their money overseas. Look at Western and Eastern Germany or North and South Korea for examples of market driven verses government controlled economies.
Your analysis is accurate and unbiased. Well done. Lets hope the country is better off regardless of which politician wins.
Always a pleasure listening to you.. Brilliant
You are very detailed and I must say, I like your presentations.... Excellent...
If it was not for the SMWX, I would not be aware of what GNU is and it's purpose, enkosi Dr Sizwe ❤🎉
In an ideal world the Minister,Deputy Minister and DG should not be from same party.This is for full transparency
Yes
The ANC proofed themselves over the past 30 years , what did they do for the country apart from taking care of their own pockets . We the people were supposed to put a stop to this . At least the DA is not corrupt and they proof what they can do in the Western Cape .
One would have thought that by now the ANC would have learnt that employing the right party for the job is best for South Africans. Give the DA what they're good at and save your own vrot reputation CR. The people have spoken.
Can we please have a breakdown on how private interest benefit from these portfolios & their relationships with party funders… That’s what we’re missing!
Well done Sizwe. Sound sorted !!!
It's a real circus,,,, pity that the people of South Africa are the victims of this circus.Tjo!........
Absolutely love your presentations. Clear, concise and to the point
Let’s hold them to account for transparency and accountability above all else. That sets the strong foundation upon which to rebuild this country.
Absolutely

Best ever people please listen carefully 🙏 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sizwe, could you perhaps explain this to us in a future? - The 60% consensus rule means that no policies can be changed within the agreement of either party. For this reason, even if DA recieved significant portfolios, won't they infact not have to implemnt the policies that were already in place? If the DA did want to make any significant change to policies for a portfolio would they not need to get the ANC to agree to those changes? The bottom line: If DA gets a portfolio, will they not infact be simply ensuring that ANC/parliaments policies are simply enacted?
Sizwe what you say makes sense. Also very clear and easy for the layman to follow and understand more the insights of all the goings on in the political field at present.
I don't like the DA....but The Anc can't give something and then take it back...Stick to your word.
But it's called negotiations and it's in the ANC's advantage to consider what they will gave to DA. Come to think about it the party that stands to Lose if this GNU is dismantled is DA, ANC can still partner with MK and EFF. If DA gets Deputy president seat. It's obvious they will Use Phala Phala to vote out Ramaphosa. ANC must keep all the powerful economic, domestic positions.
Wel tel me if da safe this country anc Eff mk had 30j😮 and they distro it why wil yo go with them😮
The ANC is stabbing the DA in the back. A leopard never changes it spots. Shame on them.
Give the DA nothing , they are the same colonizers. They are the same aparthide. DONT WORK WITH THEM!!!!!!! NOTHING!
The anc lost popularity by not sticking to their word
WHATEVER STOLEN MOUTHFUL, CAN NEVER BE EASILY SWALLOWED
Dr sizwe explains it well
WELL SAID, Sizwe !!
Love this gentleman's logic and analysis........fascinating insight......
Thank you for your balanced objective reporting. It helps us understand each other's views. Hopefully, it will lead to respect for each other's views and needs.
I can't believe I find myself routing for the DA here
Balanced views thanks. Bottom line, the country wants to grow. As a nation, we are waiting for the leaderships to set the course. Do the right thing, and do things right.
Economic growth and development sit at the centre of success criteria.
Teach us, go on Dr. Mpofu-Walsh.
DA or ANC are South Afrcans and both CARE for the future of S.A. Let them GOVERN!!!!
Thank you very much brother. Your analysis and breakdown makes one's understanding of our political status better. I guess its a journey we must embrace as a country. Hopefully leadership will eventually gravitate towards a unified point of common national interest which will make us a better place or at the least steer us towards that directiom. Enkosi Bawo🤝. Qhubeka ngokwenz'umsebenzi omhle.
Thanks for the brilliant impartial analysis Sizwe. Keep it up
The DA must not compromise. They must get their fair share of cabinet posts. The ANC is negotiating in bad faith.
In europe not here
Their way of thinking ANC is still allow us to steal big time
Their fair share in accordance with “proportional representation relative to their 21% in the election results. That proportional representation means 6 cabinet posts (21% of government departments). So what is a “fair share” according to you? You don’t want a proportional representation as agreed in the Statement of Intent?
I agree with you and if they don't they should definitely walk away.
6 cabinet positions is their fair share
We need a daily show😂😂😂...
Ramaphosa is alive to the fact that his political future is tied to the DA, and the DA is also very much aware that their chance to take political power is tied to Ramaphosa remaining in the presidency. This is the crux of the matter. The coalition between Ramaphosa and the DA is about Ramaphosa's political survival. Therefore, Ramaphosa will not accept any coalition which does not include the DA and the DA will not walk away.
You have ,nailed it
You have ,nailed it
Love your analysis and comments on this complicated issue..
Always interesting. Hope it all works out for this beautiful country that I live so much. Ex Saffa living in Oz
It doesn’t feel like a GNU still feels like the ANC and DA are battling it out
At least they are talking to find whatever.
Okay Sizwe u always bring light to and sence to the clutter thanks.
Yes brings color but not too much . Only his father side .
Well said my brother i pray and hope our leaders are listening to this❤
100% and that they see the immense value in Sizwe, such class.
You are doing an amazing job here bro. Do keep up the good work. We will be tuned in support and lending an ear.
We need this country to succeed. Tenders , work not delivered.vi understand why they need it. To build South Africa.
Thanks for the analysis. Well explained.
😢don't worry SA ur COLONIALISTS are BACK 😁Trust us ✊🏿❤
My concern with some of the talk about saving the ANC for the long term, is that the discussion is not about the best for the people, but it's once again what is best for the party. Any party whose primary purpose is not to improve the life of all South African's, but rather to secure its future is deeply concerning. We need to move away from party centric politics, to the people centric politics. If the ANC and DA can show that they can work together with the IFP and improve the lives of all South African's, my hope is that both parties will become stronger in the long term.
You're brilliant my man, love your analyses!
I am greatful for people like you in this life, I have learnt a lot ever since I been tuning in to your vids.
You're the best ❤
Very informative analysis 👏 👍, keep up the good and great work
Big ask 5 objectives. Excellent analysis. Tkx
Brilliant explanation.
Very good assessment 😮
Essential viewing for a Friday night 🎉😊. 200k subscribers, here we come. Ayeye!
You are so amazing 👏 🤩 💖
Great insight DR Simpofu keep the good work
Is this govt going to be DA & ANC and still be defined as GNU. Meaning the nation is represented by these parties. Why are other parties signed in not part of this wrangle for positions.
Angithi they are bluffing us with this GNU.
Excellent explanation.
Hello Dr Mpofu may you please in one of your show speak to what APARTHEID means as according to it's definition and the situation now in RSA. Reading the meaning of it with us being democratic I am now lost and needs clarity. I trust that you can assist because your show is outstanding and clearly explains topics that are discussed. Thank you for your help 🙏
How can we trust the ANC after years of BS. Go DA the people who voted for u want u to succeed and demand respect from the people who after 30 years have failed the country.
You've Won Me Back. Sizwe Sizwe Swize. What a GREAT GREAT analysis. Wow, this is exactly how many of us, the children of 70's, 80's and 90's activist see it playing out. Respect lost for Cyril (Judas) and his cabal. A GREAT Analysis Sizwe 👏🏾
Ayeye❤
Was longing for this video🙌🏽
DA was not supposed to ask for 11 ministers in the first place, based on the votes they received 6 ministers are a fair reflection
I am so happy with this DANC marriage of convenience. It will make the majority catch a wake up and hopefully our people can rise against the economic injustice like Kenyan people did.
Thanks!
White south African here, really enjoy your show, let's just hope they can fix everything, I don't care who the hek is in power, why don't you get into parliment
We also don't care as long it doesn't mean a tiny dutch settler population being overrepresented.
@@shafiyaalgiquadra1105 You know the DA is more black than white? Just do the maths and stop being racist.
Thanks
Your analysis is sober and objective. The moment you highlighted how much the DA has climbed down on their demands and stating that proportionally they are entitled.
It’s what you agree with definitely not objective. 20% doesn’t entitle you to considerable power that’s more entitlement not entitled to.
Information is wrong
Sizwe failed to read the DA's tactic of asking for too much in order to finally compromise down to what you actually want to have, and hopefully a little more😂
I feel like Sizwe is against CR17. I would love to know which party you support kodwa i suspect MK, gathering on your analysis
@@yahzeez9942they share 33% of the seats within the gnu which is not nothing and its almost a foregone conclusion that the second biggest party within a coalition should have the deputy president position based on the precedent set by other coalitions across the world
I don't care about which party , but we need to see growth. ,no violence, no corruption 😢. Taxpayers money not to be wasted again😢.
Loving the election content! Thank you so much Sizwe. If possible, please cover the Finance Bill and what's happening in Kenya. 🙏
However governance comes into play, be it proportional of greater power control, accelerate into leading this country of a new era. Deliberation is only delaying decisions into a democracy awaiting take off.
Salute you Dr Sizwe MW, for leading the people 👏 on this platform . Excellent understanding 👏 in your presentation.
Thank you for your unbiased analysis
Thank you for the insightful explanation
You are going to be the president of this country, keep your notes, you are going to need them.
