The ANC's biggest problem is not its policies, but a failure to put them into practice, the Congress of SA Trade Unions (Cosatu) said on Friday.

"We lack political will to implement our own decisions, in particular when those decisions are against powerful interests in the organisation," Cosatu said.

 

[Sinbad]

It's not lack of will. It's lack of ability.

COSATU are just making friends with everyone aren't they?

 

[MickeyD]

And it's taken COSATU exactly how long to realise this???

 

[Nicodeamus]

I beg to differ though, its policies aren't always great either

 

[Shayd]

I have to agree with them. The ANC is just incompetent not evil.

 

[bekdik]

I get very confused as to which hat is what.

Cosatu are part of the government, most(all?) Cosatu representatives are ANC members.

So, who isn't doing what and with which and to whom?

 

[Voicy]

tripartite alliance member says what?

Its interesting that COSATU is becoming critical of the ANC lately.

Infighting much?

And then we have Lindiwe Sisulu going after the unions http://mg.co.za/article/2012-06-21-ls-for-value-for-money

More pointless babbling from Cosatu. Unless they actually turn their criticism into action at the voting booth it means zilch.

ANC fails at almost everything - COSATU spread the work to the people, they don't know this because they still punt the cANCer.

Up till now, almost 20yrs on the only, almost success has been the Gautrain, everything else is a huge fail and with huge pilfering and corruption.

The cANCer is evil.

, almost success has been the Gautrain

Didn't the Gautrain just fail because of rain on the track? That isn't almost!!

Like which policy?

If one alliance partner is critical of another's issues doesn't mean gloves are off and there's infighting and it will all become a disaster. This is all normal. Members within the ANC have always been critical of other member's take on issues, and there's nothing wrong about it. This has been happening during the Mandela era and long before he became a prominent member of the ANC. The trouble comes when members start attacking other members personally.

Up till now, almost 20yrs on the only, almost success has been the Gautrain, everything else is a huge fail and with huge pilfering and corruption.

The only reason you only mention Gautrain is because it serves you, your friends and family? What about Rea Vaya, a disaster?

"We lack political will to implement our own decisions.

Cosatu's ANC decisions? This sort of talk is scary - they are incapable of separating themselves, so much so that they believe that they're one and the same...

And they still haven't fully understood that this isn't all that is at fault with this cancer. COSATU hasn't yet realised that this cancer is far worse than credited.
