ANC slams ATM, DA as no-confidence motion fails
The ANC has describe Wednesday's motions of no confidence in the National Assembly as political gimmicks.
The National Assembly voted against the motion of no confidence in the entire cabinet while a similar motion against President Cyril Ramaphosa failed to go ahead.
The African Transformation Movement (ATM) motion is still the subject of a court application on voting procedures.
“The ANC is of the belief that even if the motion were brought back to the National Assembly a million times, this motion would still not see the light of day,” the ANC said in a statement.

“Both motions are nothing else but a quest for relevance and attention-seeking gimmicks by these terrible Siamese twins.
“For the ATM, a party that received less than one percent of electoral support in the May 2019 national elections, yet they believe they can alter the will of the majority of the South African people is wishful thinking.”
“This is just a political stunt aimed at usurping power through the backdoor," the governing party added.
