The decision follows a thorough investigation conducted by the DA’s Federal Legal Commission into the allegations against Gouws
The Democratic Alliance (DA) has confirmed that the party’s Federal Executive has unanimously resolved to terminate Renaldo Gouws’ membership.
DA national spokesperson Willie Aucamp said Gouws has been formally informed of this decision.
“He therefore forfeits his Democratic Alliance seat in Parliament.”
Contraventions
The decision follows a thorough investigation conducted by the DA’s Federal Legal Commission (FLC) into the allegations against Gouws.
“The FLC found Mr Gouws guilty of contravening several sections of the DA’s constitution.
“The DA remains committed to upholding its values of accountability, non-racialism, and respect for all South Africans,” Aucamp said.
Hot water
Gouws landed in hot water after a video showed the seemingly angry DA MP referring to black South Africans by the K-word.
“Alright, so there’s a couple of things I want to say, kill the f**king k***ers. Kill all the f***ing n***ers. That’s all I’ve got to say. Kill the f***ing k***ers, kill all the f***ing n***ers.”
