South Africa: Radical NUMSA-backed United Front declares 'Enough is enough'!

South Africa: Radical NUMSA-backed United Front declares 'Enough is enough'!.

As activists of the United Front, we view our first and main task to build movements that mobilise to fight corruption, looting of public resources, failing service delivery, increasingly unaccountable governance, violence against women, children and LGBTQI people, police brutality, and anti-poor/pro-rich economic policies (“neoliberalism”). We will resist retrenchments, [service] cut-offs, evictions, the collapse of our education and health systems and the retribalisation of the countryside

Our goal is to strive for the deepening of democracy and the building of people’s power in social, economic and political spheres where collective needs and interests of the people as a whole come before profits and other elite interests.

We call on the workers, the unemployed, women and youth, shack dwellers, back yarders, farm workers, landless and the dispossessed, to organise, mobilise and build the United Front in every corner of the country.

Emphasis Mine

A united front allows people with similar objectives and worlviews to work together in a common cause without having to adopt a common political program or ideology.
