EFF: Latest news, policy moves and what they mean for South Africa

The EFF (Economic Freedom Fighters) keeps South African politics lively. Known for bold statements, red berets and loud rallies, the party pushes for land reform, nationalisation and economic change. If you want clear updates — not spin — this tag page collects news, interviews, court updates and analysis about the EFF in one place.

Why care about the EFF? Because their actions shape debates on land, jobs and inequality. Even when they are not in government, their votes, protests and coalition choices force other parties to react. That’s where we help: quick summaries, background for context and links to full reports so you can follow fast-moving stories without hunting around.

What we cover under the EFF tag

We track five things you’ll see often here: public statements from Julius Malema and senior leaders, policy positions on land and nationalisation, courtroom battles and legal challenges, election results and council or parliamentary maneuvers, plus protest actions and public events. Each item links to the full article, so you can read a quick take or dig deeper.

Expect straightforward reporting: who said what, where it happened, the likely political fallout and how communities are affected. We avoid jargon and explain legal or policy terms in plain language. For example, if the EFF pushes for expropriation without compensation, we’ll show what that could mean for farmers, voters and the law — fast.
