Vryheidsfront Plus
Vryheidsfront Plus

The FF+ dates back to 1994 and is led by Pieter Groenewald. It is the only South African party to field a parliamentary caucus consisting entirely of white men, in the form of its four MPs. But of late the FF+ has started to branch out, now touting itself as a party not just for Afrikaner separatists but for other minority groups in South Africa. Its selection of Peter Marais as the party’s Western Cape Premier was a clear sign that the FF+ hopes to attract “coloured” voters in the province, where it has been busily campaigning in rural areas. It continues to lobby hard for the protection of Afrikaans, farmers and gun-owners and has been outspoken in its opposition to land expropriation without compensation.

The FF Plus is the natural home of all whom:

  • believe in Christian values;
  • believe crime has to be actively tackled and corruption has to be eradicated;
  • strive for economic prosperity and progress;
  • are proud of their identity and strive for the protection of their culture, education and values;
  • believe that all 11 official languages in South Africa should be promoted equally.

Did you know?

  • The FF Plus is the only party which voted against the new stricter Black Economic Empowerment Act (Parliament, June 2013).
  • The FF Plus says stop racial discrimination where the wealthy black elite is enriched further at the expense of poor South Africans.
  • The FF Plus is the only party which stands up against the ANC’s propaganda lies about the history and land ownership in South Africa (Parliament 2012).
  • The FF Plus is the only party which demands that farm attacks be declared a priority crime.
  • The FF Plus is the only party which opposes legislation and policies which hampers job-creation.
  • The FF Plus is the only party which offers real solutions for a better future.

Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
