Can we have an analysis of the size of the population of these 132 municipalities vs the ones the DA is leading? I think it might open your eyes.

[TheChamp]

Well the DA is growing unlike the ANC. Would you rather be a growing party or a party in long-term decline?

That makes it even worse, it would be better if they were not growing, then this massive gap could be explained. How do you even begin to explain this?

What's up with the Liewe Heksie look?

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

It does not have to be explicit, Zille can come out and say how disappointed she is she never got the percentage she aimed for and therefore she will fall on her sword, because she is an honourable leader. She them goes back to Cape Town and someone takes her place.

Doesn't matter how you frame it to the public, it's still giving in. The ANC never tolerated Zuma calling for Ramaphosa to resign and it's the correct call. Unacceptable on all levels for a democratic institution to even consider it, and a betrayal of its constituents.

Especially when the ones calling for it were never elected, like Zuma and Mashaba. That's a very slippery slope, planting the seeds for dictators to start finding loopholes. No matter how much you don't like Zille or Ramaphosa it shouldn't even be up for debate...

Yes, but the ANC had plenty of options as you can see with the GNU. But the DA can stand firm, I am sure there's nothing ActionSA can do if they refuse.

Habibi is not giving up shem.

ASA and Mashaba are giving off such negativity right now it is getting tiresome.

He done well in the elections, he should be smiling and happy.

Instead we have Mr Sourpuss who everyone is getting sick of.

As the DA has options now. But even if they didn't I would rather they take the opposition benches than try to get into power at all costs through undemocratic concessions. And that's something both they and the ANC will agree on...

What did Habib say that you disagree with?

Or is it just uh duh Zille bad.

 

[The_MAC]

Who's the best person for the job?

That is the real question.. I am hoping that the new administration will figure that out

But I thought you'd jumped ship to the Asa because Herman hates aunty Helen almost as much as you do.

Stop. Flipflopping champy, its a poor look for you.

 

[Kosmik]

I would not be surprised if erpm did get in bed with MK if it gave them something... They need some sort of return for the years as a ratepayers movement.

They'd lose any support here if they did.

 

[TheChamp]

The cadres of the Liberation Movement are ready for negotiations, we need to sort this out fast fast so that we can go back to the busi9of renewing our movement.

Of course, but they'd have made some bank.

By renewing the movement thst you've just defected back to, you mean renewing the stealing hey?

Who said I disapprove of anything? I am admiring the man's determination to deliver Zille against all odds.

Exactly why a coalition with the DA is in the ANCs interest. It can make all 128 of those in leading become mayoral control.

 

[OutlawJoseyWales]

So you agree with what he said here:

Here is why Helen should be the mayor of JHB; thoughtful, strategic, detail oriented, and laser-focused on service delivery. This is exactly what we require of a Mayor in JHB, and why I support her.

 

[TheChamp]

So you agree with what he said here:

It's Habibi's opinion dude, he is allowed to have it, I also have mine about why Zille should never be allowed to even get a sniff of the Mayoral chain.
