It's undemocratic to refuse the people of the Western Cape their Democratic right, an internationally recognised Democratic right, to a referendum to be Independent and the right of ALL races of the Western Cape, most of whom are not white (so calling them racist is RIDICULOUS) to elect their own Government.
@@bonginkosinzimande1256 you really need to review the demographics of the Cape and then who supports Cape Independence. You might be in for a surprise.
Does Dr Van Heerden think that an independant Cape would not improve the lot of ALL people of the W Cape? Surely, if agreed upon after a referendum, everyones dignity would be equal and intact.
no he doesn't think so he knows so. tell me when you say "everyone's dignity would be equal and intact" why is not happening now in western cape areas like cape flat,Langa,nyanza, gugulethu,,khayelisha etc. I'm from gugulethu by the way.
The sooner people understand that racism does not exists, there was a study conducted for more than a thousand years ago which was initiated by the word "rasse". The study was concluded in 2011 and the result was, racism does not exist, it is all about cultures! What is our democracy about, human rights determined by Chapter 2 , Clause 15.1, Clause 16 and Clause 18. We are having 17 different religions globally and in South Africa, which one dominates the other, several different foundations, which one dominates the other? The ANC do exercise their rights with oppressive laws in what they believe, why not the other exercising the same rights? A democracy is about freedom and not oppression of about what the ANC demands! Orania are doing very well, based on their rights in the Constitution, why people criticize them is yet another proof of envy towards a very successful group of cultural people with the same religion. Nothing wrong with that!
I find Oscar van Heerden's household analogy to be a complete failure. Usually when betrayal and abuse run rampant within a household, especially for extended times, a 'DIVORCE' soon follows.
Imagine the Chinese saying to America hey we have a China town in every state in America, so we’re just gonna go ahead and secede those parts of the country and make them our own😂😂😂😂😂
Unless we give the people who pay the taxes,,,the opportunity to prevent the ANC ever having a role to play in our future.....????? Of course we want independence......!!!
Phil Craig has it completely wrong about the DA, it's puzzling that he continues to insist the party is on board with a referendum. The DA is on record from its Cape Town Mayoral Candidate right up to the DA leader that the party does NOT support a referendum on independence... because it needs the Western Cape voters to put the DA in a position to be a coalition partner to the ANC after 2024.

@Chapo Escobar My friend, i am from congo and i brown in color. Although i live in Kenya, where there's no racial distinction among Africans, all Africans were affected by migration. In this day and age, fight the white man, thats the big problem in SA. Bantus should be your allies right now, so you must consider yourself a black person. Outside Africa we are black, it doesn't matter how darker or lighter you're. Fight to be black, don't fight to be coloured. Saying you're coloured is just putting a target on your back.
I think it should not be independent because it is angry (if not raged) about the way ZA is progressing. Competitive Cape can put pressure on any party willing to run the country. But separating ZA into chunks is only leading to the challenges EU is faced with (if not worse). Besides our history and theirs is totally different. Orania is also another issue. And Afrikaans is the language of interest over English which is already in use. What about other local languages. What about Khoi-San. But segregation is not a solution.

my view from afar is that :a) this call for secession is simply apartheid dressed up to be democracy b) no talk about a fence to keep the masses out c) there needs to be two referendums - one for wc and one for the country as a whole (changing the constitution remember- cause this will never get the 67% votes in parliament). why can't people just focus on these two issues and realise that this is not going to work!!! get on with life under the ANC
People who cry that they are the victims are the very same people that are guilty of the things that they accuse others of. No matter what you say, everyone can see you for who you really are. As far as we see, the ANC picked up the torch of apartheid instead of reforming the country. Do you remember how people had to walk around with passes because they were not white? And now the president wants people to get a vaccine to have a travel pass. The ANC can't even treat their elders with respect. This is not what we signed up for. How long do you think they will last? Forever? The western cape should rule over the whole country if they know what is good for them. Accountability is not racist, its what you need to learn, its what you should know as an adult.
Now your ignorance is showing. Perhaps you should look at the constitution first. Wp is entitled to ask for a referendum under the current constitution plain and simple. The rest of the country don't have any say in that.
I just sense arrogance. The same people who were leading the apartheid and created bantu stands are the same that are leading the referendum for Cape independence.
@Deformiter He is the leader of the majority party in the Western Cape. So what does his parties manifesto say. A ruling party does not call for a referendum if it is not in their interest. They might have to comply with something that might hurt them Politically.
You guys never find good people to argue against these idiots. They don't have strong arguments, and you put them against a fringe group that has prepared their whole lives for debate on this.
No it is what's the racist minority want ...and they are greedy as fuck ...we are blacks living in Cape town ...you can't blame ANC for development while most of the cape is run by DA and it took more than 300 years for racist to obtain ....power why do you expect ANC to solve inequality in 30 years ....blacks are struggling just because few ANC members steal ...now you gonna have to trick us ...into .. stealing the land .....you must bring back the land you stole from us.....

It's undemocratic to refuse the people of the Western Cape their Democratic right, an internationally recognised Democratic right, to a referendum to be Independent and the right of ALL races of the Western Cape, most of whom are not white (so calling them racist is RIDICULOUS) to elect their own Government.

Does Dr Van Heerden think that an independant Cape would not improve the lot of ALL people of the W Cape?
Surely, if agreed upon after a referendum, everyones dignity would be equal and intact.
no he doesn't think so he knows so. tell me when you say "everyone's dignity would be equal and intact" why is not happening now in western cape areas like cape flat,Langa,nyanza, gugulethu,,khayelisha etc. I'm from gugulethu by the way.

The sooner people understand that racism does not exists, there was a study conducted for more than a thousand years ago which was initiated by the word "rasse". The study was concluded in 2011 and the result was, racism does not exist, it is all about cultures! What is our democracy about, human rights determined by Chapter 2 , Clause 15.1, Clause 16 and Clause 18. We are having 17 different religions globally and in South Africa, which one dominates the other, several different foundations, which one dominates the other? The ANC do exercise their rights with oppressive laws in what they believe, why not the other exercising the same rights? A democracy is about freedom and not oppression of about what the ANC demands! Orania are doing very well, based on their rights in the Constitution, why people criticize them is yet another proof of envy towards a very successful group of cultural people with the same religion. Nothing wrong with that!
I find Oscar van Heerden's household analogy to be a complete failure. Usually when betrayal and abuse run rampant within a household, especially for extended times, a 'DIVORCE' soon follows.

Phil Craig has it completely wrong about the DA, it's puzzling that he continues to insist the party is on board with a referendum. The DA is on record from its Cape Town Mayoral Candidate right up to the DA leader that the party does NOT support a referendum on independence... because it needs the Western Cape voters to put the DA in a position to be a coalition partner to the ANC after 2024.

@Chapo Escobar Stop positioning yourself as coloured, yet you're black. There's no such thing as coloured. Pick a side.
@Chapo Escobar My friend, i am from congo and i brown in color. Although i live in Kenya, where there's no racial distinction among Africans, all Africans were affected by migration. In this day and age, fight the white man, thats the big problem in SA. Bantus should be your allies right now, so you must consider yourself a black person. Outside Africa we are black, it doesn't matter how darker or lighter you're. Fight to be black, don't fight to be coloured. Saying you're coloured is just putting a target on your back.
yes why not ...
I think it should not be independent because it is angry (if not raged) about the way ZA is progressing.
Competitive Cape can put pressure on any party willing to run the country. But separating ZA into chunks is only leading to the challenges EU is faced with (if not worse). Besides our history and theirs is totally different.
Orania is also another issue. And Afrikaans is the language of interest over English which is already in use. What about other local languages. What about Khoi-San.
But segregation is not a solution. Let us try another route: not segregation please.

Excuse me, am I the only one whose asking himself why a British person is acting south african?
The British are in on it.
my view from afar is that :a) this call for secession is simply apartheid dressed up to be democracy b) no talk about a fence to keep the masses out c) there needs to be two referendums - one for wc and one for the country as a whole (changing the constitution remember- cause this will never get the 67% votes in parliament). why can't people just focus on these two issues and realise that this is not going to work!!! get on with life under the ANC
People who cry that they are the victims are the very same people that are guilty of the things that they accuse others of. No matter what you say, everyone can see you for who you really are.
As far as we see, the ANC picked up the torch of apartheid instead of reforming the country.
Do you remember how people had to walk around with passes because they were not white?
And now the president wants people to get a vaccine to have a travel pass.
The ANC can't even treat their elders with respect. This is not what we signed up for.
How long do you think they will last? Forever?
The western cape should rule over the whole country if they know what is good for them.
Accountability is not racist, its what you need to learn, its what you should know as an adult.
Now your ignorance is showing. Perhaps you should look at the constitution first. Wp is entitled to ask for a referendum under the current constitution plain and simple. The rest of the country don't have any say in that.
