GOOD 2019 Election Manifesto

Now is a GOOD time to fix South Africa.

The world and South Africa has changed significantly since 1994. Doing ‘government as usual’ is not good enough
anymore.

Our country is rapidly urbanising. By 2050, more than 80% of South Africans will live in towns and cities. No family
will be unaffected by what happens in a town or city.

GOOD recognises that our country’s future lies in the development of its towns and cities. We must fix South Africa
so that our towns and cities offer a pathway to a GOOD life for everyone.

GOOD plans to create a future where towns and cities are empowered to take the lead in creating positive and real
change for everyone.

That is why GOOD is proposing to turn government on its head – to empower towns and cities to build prosperous,
safe and socially inclusive communities.

To bring power as close to our people as possible.

To fix old government structures that are not working, so that we can start fixing our gross unemployment, our
declining economic growth, and the crippling corruption that’s brought our country to its knees.

To fix the massive inequalities of land ownership, the slow pace of rural land reform, societal segregation and wealth
distribution.

To fix the housing injustices, lack of public-service delivery and failing public transport system that’s leaving our
people stranded and broke.

To fix the deteriorating education system, digital exclusion and the protection of privilege that’s impacting the
development of our future leaders.

We stand up for a country that has zero tolerance for racism, gender discrimination, corruption and poverty. GOOD
is not afraid to tackle these issues honestly, and head on.

The GOOD party is led by GOOD people, fighting to create a GOOD life for every GOOD South African.

We stand for the GOOD of our people. The GOOD of our country and the GOOD of our planet.

And we believe that serving you, the people of South Africa, is our privilege and honour.

South Africa needs GOOD people to speak out against corruption, against embedded unearned privilege and against
structural and socialised disadvantage that determines who succeeds and who doesn’t.

GOOD is continuing to develop its PLAN to fix our country and will expand this offering in the months ahead.

Now is a GOOD time to fix South Africa.

Now is a GOOD time to vote for GOOD.
