You cannot burn the country's flag that flag represents us that flag people died for that flag and you just burned…. That says a lot about you
Africa dont let yourself fooled by europeans. Dont let history repeat itself. First they give and then play nice, till they got some power and throw you out. And your childrens will be slaves again. Let them go to europe and help there. Many problems there too.
Excellent said , the other PARTY ARE THE PETTY
You cowards that complain about the flag, obviously happy with the murders, lack of essential needs, lack of jobs etc as you all say nothing about that, instead you vote for those that cause the above crisis in the country. You should all be ashamed of yourself. As soon as you stop being emotional the country will change.
Flag representing the voters. When burning the flag. Then. You have burned the votes
It's about. Mocking heroes of liberation struggle in South Africa. DA is faking their insult to the South African people.
Arrogance ! The South African flag is not the ANC flag. It was intended by Madiba for reconciliation. I am a Ward 90 DA supporter and will be voting for the local Ward Councillor. I will not be voting DA nationally.
These people breath racism…..
burning SA flags .is unjustifiable…..advert or no advent….your mothers breastfed you……with Racism..arphatheid……we are not fools….
John is mentally sick. Whwt does the burning of our flag do to address unemployment?
When will John show us that in Western Cape noone is unemployed. This sick apartheid champion must never think that South Africans are sick just like him.
This is the reason why we should never vote for DA.
This man cabt protect the country if he has courage to burn a national flag publicly. He say whatever he wants, but burning a national symbol for whatever, is in bad taste and terrible judgement
How is Steenhuis going to be pronounced in AU meetings if you make DA rule this country? Another bass, with Afrikaans name, the very language that caused June 16 riots? Wake up darkie your R350 is going to Netherlands 😂😂😂
DA once called the Indians heros for killing the black people in Phoenix and the DA is burning our flag,to the black people's what does this mean,there was something written on the inside of the door by one of the toilet doors in one of the garages on the N3 and it's said the black wolf came to the white wolf's house and drove it out of its house and the white wolf has'nt forgotten what the black wolf did to it and the burning of our flag is the message that is send to us black people
Stupid strategy, fishing for viewership at the expense of votes…negative publicity right there.
DA esele hoo
DA just go to townships with kfc, you will win
ANC is done!!! When DA wins this 2024 elections i will jump for joy!
You can't defend the indefensible. It's just an offensive ad, no respect to the majority of South Africans. This ad will come back to haunt the DA
😂😂😂
There's nothing that could be justified in burning the flag of the country it's totally unacceptable undermining all efforts in uniting the people
The EFF is corrupt and a lot off clowns no manners sorrie 😮
DA DA DA DA nice love the DA viva for DA 🎉
Steenhuisen should resign. It is never accepable to burn your own country's flag !! and I consider myself DA supporter.
What about George? You are pumping raw crap water in our river.
No difference between you and ANC.
I dint see you stop the Bella bill. Or stop abortion, what about the buy law's you are busy passing on the western Cape citizens that own property 🤔.
You and the ANC belong behind bars. You are a disgrace to our country.
South Afrcans deserve better.
When you have a stupid leader this is what you get. Why burn it to begin with? Seriously this guy will end the DA.
That's Ludacris Johnston hazing biggest fool intellectual hobo
My vote is very clear EFF✖ EFF✖ EFF✖
Black people voting DA , think again these are wolves in sheep skins
Racist
Go DA educate the voters how to think and vote
Your fist down making sure land doesn't go back to the indigenous it rather continue being in hand of your own racist whittess. F!!CK the devil alliance
Why burn de flag
This 'right here' is the point where the DA lost everything. The DA will never recover from this in SA, this is the beginning of the end for the DA. You never disrespect a National Symbol
This is now too personal and I will be too personal come 29 May. I am sure those who were still confused on which party to vote for after what is currently happening between different parties then i really dont know.
Western Cape which is led by the DA is bad, there are terrible conditions where Africans live. Development is only in the areas of white people. Then this illustrate high school dropout wants us to vote for the racist DA! Akanyi perhaps?
Wake up South Africa if you vote for the DA (Democratic Apartheid) you're voting for your own destruction. They are showing you they intend to destroy the country.
"Flag burning is the destruction of a symbol of national unity. Even if the flag that is destroyed is private property, the government has a legitimate interest in regulating its protection because of what the flag represents to the nation."
@shafiyaalgiquadra1105 when you become the party you where so called fighting that is racism in itself? You have been indoctrinated into a system full of lies and deceit. That methodology is extremely dangerous for this country in current times.
DA and Multi Party Charter to rescue and save South Africa and its citizens.
DA is a racist organization.
We are outraged about an illustration of our flag burning, but the reality on the ground is exactly that. The people on the ground are suffering. I think the ANC has been burning the flag that people died for and fought for, since 1994, burning the country to the ground! How can anyone, look at the poor state of our Country and say the country is not burning??? Load shedding, poor service delivery, murder, GBV, unemployed youth, unemployed graduates, SME’s going out of business, poor economy, state capture, corruption…the lists go on, but we are outrages about an illustration on Social Media?? What position of privilege are we looking from to deny this fact? We should be outraged because the governing party is burning the country to the ground EVERY DAY, but no….. I think it’s absurd.
If you have to explain the ad, then you shouldn’t be voting. ANC has more blood on its hands. Hypocritical bunch.
C’ moon Steenhuisen, the Nation is in tears. Apologise.
Something went wrong with Steenhuisen. Maybe he was possessed. It’s unlike him. Take him to hospital for further observation. I like him as a person. He was not himself.
