🌱 Minister of Agriculture, the DA’s John Steenhuisen MP, has unblocked trade with China of dairy, greasy wool and beef exports. China is the world's second biggest economy, and facilitating these exports into China presents a significant growth opportunity for SA.

🚫 Rooting out corruption! Minister of Communications and Digital Technologies, the DA's Solly Malatsi, has referred a major forensic report on R89.5 million in Postbank fraud to the Hawks. Corruption is not a victimless crime, it steals from all citizens and affects delivery.

🚨 Today, the DA is at the Western Cape High Court to challenge the appointment of Dr. John Hlophe to the Judicial Service Commission. This is an irrational decision to appoint an impeached judge for gross misconduct, and we will fight to protect the integrity of our judiciary.
