JOHANNESBURG - The ANC has lost support for the national budget. This as political parties reject the proposed 0.5% VAT increase.
It needs the support of the DA and other GNU partners, or of the opposition EFF and MK Party to get the Budget passed.
ActionSA has put a spanner in the works by also rejecting the Budget in its current form.
ActionSA's National Chairperson, Michael Beaumont says "they will continue to remain open to how can South Africa have a budget that is constructive and address some of the issues that don't make South Africans pay more".
