The Expropriation Bill is in the final stages of becoming law.
The ANC government is once again thinking of trying to implement prescribed assets to get their hands onto your savings.
The government thinks taxpayers’ money is theirs – it’s not

Government was forced to admit that Covid-19 is no longer a “Disaster” but still wants to mandate masks indefinitely. Sign up to stop forced masking.
This new education law will further centralise power in the hands of cadres and limit parents’ rights. South Africa needs child-centred education reform. Stop state control of schools!
On 6 December, President Ramaphosa confirmed that the National Coronavirus Command Council will consider vaccine mandates.
Together, let’s stop Cricket South Africa from forcing players to pledge allegiance to the BLM movement!
The Command Council is an unelected body of ANC cadres that has hijacked our democracy.
In addition to other taxes, the government wants you to pay a new Job Tax of up to 12% on your earnings into a state fund. If you work, you will have to pay into the fund. Those that do not work will get a benefit from this state fund, paid for by employees and businesses. Given the high cost of living and record high tax rates how will you be able to afford this?
The Constitution requires national municipal elections in October 2021. The government has just called for an illegal postponement. Support our legal action by signing up below.

The IRR is seizing forward momentum to direct pressure where it counts in rands and cents, existing policies that cancel growth. Support our next step to challenges ministers and CEO’s to implement our proposals that will deliver economic growth.
Ratepayers should not have to choose between buying bread or paying property taxes.
Families are paying more than half of their income to the state. Major new tax increases are also on the way with the biggest of these being EWC that will tax your business, income, and assets at 100%. Stop the abuse! Sign our tax petition below!

Let’s stand together to stop the ANC re-racializing cricket!
The South African government has recently approached the IMF for financial support, but we must make clear to the IMF that they should only provide support if the government gets rid of EWC, NHI, BEE, pension grabs, and policies that make the lives of all South Africans more difficult.
It is unacceptable that President Ramaphosa could, on 15 March, call for national unity, urging South Africans to ‘act together’ to overcome the threat of the Covid-19 pandemic, only for the Minister of Tourism, Mmamoloko Kubayi-Ngubaneto, to insist on 7 April that race will be used as a basis to determine which South Africans receive government support.
Support the IRR in putting pressure on the government to implement a 'trim down' rather than lockdown. Livelihoods AND lives need to be protected during this pandemic - support us in doing so and protecting lives and the economy.
The Institute of Race Relations (IRR) has launched an open letter campaign, asking prominent South African banks to clarify for their clients the implications of expropriation without compensation (EWC) becoming government policy.
Education is the key to creating a country that is prosperous and works for all who live in it.
Despite what some politicians, activist-journalists, radio talk show hosts, and others would have you believe, South Africans actually have a lot in common and we all have a healthy dose of #CommonSense – common sense which the government could use.
Despite what some politicians, activist-journalists, radio talk show hosts, and others would have you believe, racism is not South Africa’s biggest problem. IRR research shows that the great majority of South Africans respect one another and want to work together to build a better country. But this is only possible if the moderate middle of South Africans stand united. Our research shows that 80% of South Africans share the same dreams, hopes, and expectations and are deeply invested in their fellow citizens' success. If you are one among that moderate majority then endorse our Unite the Middle campaign to help us stop race-based policy and race-baiting politicians and activists in order to emphasise the common ground that unites all South Africans and put our country firmly on the path to prosperity.
The collective amount that South Africans have saved up for their pensions is big. About 16 million South Africans are members of retirement funds (with about 11 million still working and saving, the remainder having already retired). At the end of 2016, the total value of South African retirement funds was R4-trillion. This is nearly equivalent to the total size of South Africa’s economy (which is R4.4 trillion). In addition, this pot of retirement savings is the biggest in Africa, and one of the biggest in the world.
Crime in South Africa has reached epidemic levels. Nearly 60 people are murdered every day, and rates of sexual violence are even higher. At the same time crime against vulnerable groups, like women, farmers, and foreign nationals looks to be on the increase.
The charter below sets out our vision for how parents should take back control of South Africa's schools. If you share that vision you are one of thousands of South Africans who want to take back control from the state and ensure a better future for our country's children. Make sure your voice is heard by endorsing the charter and we will make sure your endorsement is heard by South Africa's political leaders.
