The political party to end all parties…

Lauren Eventhia Bernardo, the founder of the Organic Humanity Movement (OHM) Party, advocates a political system that will remove political parties - and in which only independents will run for public office. In this interview with BizNews, she says that will enable the voter to vote directly for all of their public representatives, including the President of South Africa. "And we believe this will completely transform our country. We also want to implement a mechanism that votes public representatives out if they're not doing their jobs.” She says a vote for a small party is not a wasted vote - and tells voters that South Africa can be on a “completely different trajectory” if those who do not vote decide to go and vote for any party not in the top three.
