ActionSA is a South African political party established by a former mayor of Johannesburg, Herman Mashaba, soon after he left the Democratic Alliance (DA).[7]

The party states that it has been established to "set South Africa free from the restraints of a broken political system and build a prosperous, non-racial and secure future for all its people."[8] and that it follows the ideal of "Act as One to build a prosperous, non-racial and secure future for all South Africans."[9]

The party has been extremely vocal for calls on tougher immigration policy and, through its leader, Herman Mashaba, has often found itself at the centre of controversy around xenophobic rhetoric and violence in South Africa.[10]
