About the Freedom Front Plus
Information as of April 2009- In the 1994 elections the Freedom Front, then barely a month old, came fourth after the ANC, the National Party and the Inkatha Freedom Party.
- Since the acceptance of the Constitution, the Freedom Front Plus has resolutely piloted actions to protect Afrikaner interests. For example, a complaint was submitted to the Human Rights Commission at the United Nations regarding murders in cities and on farms, with specific emphasis on farm killings.
- The Freedom Front Plus threatened the South African government with a law suit, insisting that census forms be provided in all official languages.
- The Freedom Front Plus won its case with the Press Ombudsman regarding a complaint against a derogatory article about the Afrikaner in a newspaper. The newspaper was forced to apologise.
- The Freedom Front Plus is also increasingly making use of the Pan South African Language Board to oppose the neglect of Afrikaans and other languages.
- The Freedom Front challenged the exclusion of expat votes and won their application before the Pretoria High Court for South Africans living abroad to vote in the 2009 general election.
