I wish Action SA was a civil society organisation not a political party. Why? They are all the same the talk like they are better when they not.

I have noticed that pikinini Party's with no clear policies on how to run SA now own mine tragedies just to look relevant.they gambled with their members votes in municipalities.i wish they hold some sort of Nasrek congress.i want to see something
