In October 2015 she was expelled from the party by the DA Federal Executive. In December 2015 the decision was lifted on appeal to the DA's Federal Legal Commission.[1] She was born in Port Elizabeth,[2] and currently resides in KwaZulu-Natal, where she represents the Durban South constituency.[3] Career in journalismKohler Barnard spent 23 years working as a radio and print journalist. She ran the KwaZulu-Natal offices of SAfm and also presented/produced the station's afternoon news programme The Editors. Kohler Barnard is also the former chairperson of the Broadcast, Electronic Media and Allied Workers' Union in KwaZulu-Natal, and was a founder member of the inaugural SABC HIV/Aids Committee.[2] PoliticsKohler-Barnard moved to politics in response to increasing state interference in the management of the SABC. She was elected to parliament with the DA in 2004, and was initially spokesperson on Arts and Culture.[4] She was subsequently appointed opposition spokesperson on Health, and was a vocal critic of incumbent Health Minister Manto Tshabalala-Msimang, particularly over her support for controversial German vitamin salesman Matthias Rath. Rath attempted to sue Kohler Barnard for describing him as a "charlatan", and also tried to sue newspapers that carried the remark.[5] Subsequently, Kohler Barnard was appointed as Shadow Minister of Police. She was also the DA's representative on the SADC observer mission to Zimbabwe for the last two elections in that country.[2] Following a scandal (see below), she was shifted to the position of deputy spokesperson on Public Works in 2015. She was returned to the Police portfolio, but this time as Deputy Shadow Minister, in August 2017.[6] Internal DA Disciplinary ControversyKohler Barnard was almost expelled from the DA in October 2015, when it emerged that she had controversially shared on her Facebook page a post from someone else suggesting that life in South Africa was better under former apartheid President PW Botha. She deleted it after it was on her site overnight. It appeared on Twitter as shared by the ANC some weeks later. Although it had long since been deleted on FB one of the first instructions[7] to Kohler Barnard to delete the post came from former DA leader Helen Zille, who seemed to be under the impression that the post had been shared recently.[8][7][9] Kohler Barnard apologised unreservedly for her action,[10] and was subsequently demoted to the position of shadow Deputy Minister of Public Works.[11] New DA party leader Mmusi Maimane came under pressure to expel her from the party.[12] The disciplinary panel apparently recommended that Kohler Barnard be fined R20,000, be removed from all internally elected DA positions, pay for public apologies in 5 newspapers and attend a social media management course at her own expense.[13][14] Following this, Kohler Barnard's membership of the DA was terminated by the DA Federal Executive.[15] She then appealed the decision to the DA Federal Legal Commission, as a result of which her expulsion was suspended for a period of 5 years.[16][17] The controversy undoubtedly harmed the image of the DA, which has been trying to project itself as an anti-apartheid party[18][19], and also caused some serious internal tension, as some have viewed the original decisions as harsh.[20] A media report in 2016 indicated that Kohler Barnard may not have complied with all of the various sanctions placed on her by the due date.[21] References1. ^http://ewn.co.za/2015/12/22/Kohler-Barnards-expulsion-lifted 2. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.da.org.za/our_people.htm?action=view-page&category=members-of-parliament&person=656|title=Dianne Kohler Barnard}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.da.org.za/contact.htm?action=view-page&category=da-in-your-area&province=kwazulu-natal|title=Contact – DA in Your Area: KwaZulu-Natal}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.whoswhosa.co.za/dianne-kohler-barnard-5950|title=Ms Dianne Kohler Barnard}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.capetimes.co.za/index.php?fSectionId=271&fArticleId=2839828|title=Rath sues Cape Times over alleged 'offensive' remarks}} 6. ^https://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/kohler-barnard-returns-as-shadow-deputy-police-minister-20170831 7. ^1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=2&v=IGfHLDEnk5w 8. ^https://www.enca.com/south-africa/maimane-says-kohler-barnard-facebook-post-will-be-investigated 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://ewn.co.za/2015/10/01/DA-MP-slammed-over-social-media-post-calls-for-PW-Bothas-return|title=DA MP faces disciplinary action for PW Botha post|author=Gia Nicolaides|publisher=ewn.co.za}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.bdlive.co.za/national/politics/2015/10/01/kohler-barnard-to-face-internal-disciplinary-action|title=Kohler Barnard to face internal disciplinary action|work=Business Day Live}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/DA-demotes-Dianne-Kohler-Barnard-20151003|title=DA 'demotes' Dianne Kohler Barnard|work=News24}} 12. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.rdm.co.za/politics/2015/10/05/why-da-leader-mmusi-maimane-has-to-throw-kohler-barnard-under-the-bus|title=Why DA leader Mmusi Maimane has to throw Kohler Barnard under the bus|author=Justice Malala|work=Rand Daily Mail}} 13. ^http://www.timeslive.co.za/sundaytimes/stnews/2015/10/11/Kohler-Barnard-faces-bills-of-a-different-sort 14. ^http://citizen.co.za/817630/dismiss-da-mp-dianne-kohhler-barnard-says-anc/ 15. ^http://ewn.co.za/2015/10/30/DA-terminated-Kohler-Barnards-membership 16. ^http://www.timeslive.co.za/politics/2015/12/22/Dianne-Kohler-Barnard-back-in-the-DA-after-expulsion-is-lifted 17. ^http://www.politicsweb.co.za/politics/dianne-kohler-barnard-back-in-the-da 18. ^http://www.rdm.co.za/politics/2015/10/20/da-must-cleanse-itself-from-racists-starting-with-cyberfarting-kohler-barnard 19. ^http://www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2013-05-14-know-your-da-a-tale-of-two-helens/#.VioP9KSX87B 20. ^http://beta.iol.co.za/ios/news/dumped-kohlerbarnard-to-fight-back-1938617 21. ^http://www.iol.co.za/news/politics/kohler-barnard-deflects-sanctions-questions-2021809 Offices held{{s-start}}{{s-off}}{{s-bef|before=James Masango}}{{s-ttl|title=South African Shadow Deputy Minister of Public Works|years=2015–present}}{{s-aft|after=Incumbent}}{{succession box | before=Roy Jankielsohn | title=South African Shadow Minister of Police | years=2006–2015 | after=Zakhele Mbhele}}{{succession box | before=Ryan Coetzee | title=South African Shadow Minister of Health | years=2005–2006 | after=Gareth Morgan}}{{succession box | before=Sydney Opperman | title=South African Shadow Minister of Arts and Culture | years=2004–2005 | after=Desiree van der Walt}}{{s-end}}{{South African Shadow Cabinet}}{{DA National Assembly members}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Kohler Barnard, Dianne}} 5 : Living people|Democratic Alliance (South Africa) politicians|1955 births|Members of the National Assembly of South Africa|Women members of the National Assembly of South Africa |
