S.Africa: Jewish and Blacks: DA flexes its control over Cyril Ramaphosa’s ANC with renewed fight over NHI
(000228.79-:E-000157.73:N-:R-SU:C-30:V)
The Democratic Alliance (DA) is confident a talk with President Cyril Ramaphosa will resolve their objections to the National Health Insurance (NHI) in its current form.
"Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi was not part of the GNU negotiations, and as a coalition partner, we will address our concerns around the NHI directly with the President. It was a red line for us when negotiating but we were assured by the president that discussions around it will continue, so we are confident there will be a resolution. Our leadership will handle this," the party’s health spokesperson, Michele Clarke told IOL.
The party was reacting to renewed statements from Motsoaledi that medical aids will not be allowed to cover health care provided for by the proposed NHI – a new government health system.
The ANC, the party behind the NHI, insists the new system will provide more equitable, free, health care to all citizens. Medical schemes, business leaders and many civic bodies have objected to the policy in its current form, arguing it is not sustainable or financially viable. The DA has vowed to challenge it legally, while the ANC insists it’s pressing ahead – whether the DA approves or not.
Motsoaledi’s spokesperson, Foster Mohale, played down the DA’s apparent rebuff of the Minister.
"They can speak to the president, but any discussion around health policy or health care will have to involve the Health Minister. He cannot be excluded. We have to remember that the NHI has already been signed into law, so it cannot be withdrawn unless it’s done through Parliament. What will be under discussion now is the implementation of the NHI," Mohale told IOL in response.
But, a furious Clarke hit back on Motsoaledi. "If Minister Motsoaledi is willing to put a unified government at risk for his ideology, then he should not serve in that government," she added.

Some South African supporters of Loving Life asked for my opinion of this war in Israel and what it could lead to. This is my analysis of the Middle East and what I think about this war between Israel and Hamas. I also look at the Syrian Civil war and we take a look at ALL the Arab/Muslim nations from Egypt to Iran and what threats they might pose to Israel. I also discuss American and Russian military power in the region. Can the region go nuclear? I go into quite a lot of political and military analysis of this conflict.
