Solidariteit begin met regsaksie teen R100 miljard-rasfonds
NOORDWESTER – LICHTENBURG - Solidariteit se regspan het ʼn regsaanmaning aan die minister van Handel, Nywerheid en Mededinging gestuur waarin die onwettige en diskriminerende aard van die beplande R100 miljard-rasfonds uitgewys word.
Deur hierdie regsproses verskerp Solidariteit sy teenstand teen dié beplande rasfonds, wat aan al die eienskappe van nóg ʼn verrykingskema vir die politieke elite voldoen, en wat nie deur ʼn administrasie wat tans ʼn begrotingskrisis in die gesig staar, bekostig kan word nie.
