No, they're not giving it a try...

They're attempting to break away from this country.. thats called being a quitter in my books.

And ultimately its not the mentality this country needs... we need people to try FIX things, not walk away because its "too hard"

Far from it mate, yes, they want to break away but they want reps throughout South Africa not only for the benefit of the Cape but for the country as a whole.

In a country where we are subjected to the totalitarian and racist rule of one party, Cape Party representatives will fight for what is fair and just in any political position they will hold throughout the Republic of South Africa.

I think I already posted this quote on the other thread, so apologies :D
 
Sorry.. take your finger out your ass... the only real opposition to the NP came from the Cape?.. are you actually trying to pass that twaddle on as the truth.

The NP were NOT welcome in the Natal province... they were fought tooth and nail down here....

Ok, so the "Cape People" were not for the disenfranchisement of the Coloured people, but they didn't give rocks about the Africans did they?.. subhumans weren't they?

The Cape Party's quest is a stupid one that should be put down as the waste of time that it is...
(I was being "polite" previously, but I've had enough of your twaddle here..)
 
Retrobok : Ahhh, ok so they effectively want to dilute the opposition even further and therefore aid the ANC.. interesting.
 
Its an open forum, feel free not to participate any time you like. I dont bash your politics or get personal but offer a difference of opinion. Thats democracy.
 
I will bash your politics when they're counter-productive, and I will bash you "facts" when they're wrong or down right lies...
 
Watch out. This nasty little bunny bites.

Could be rabid actually......
 
This "bunny" doesn't like people lying to try and further their stupid and time-wasting agenda.

There's a bit of truth in that I agree, they might dilute opposition, but then the argument is that all other parties are diluting the opposition. So a two party state is what you want? A genuine question.

What happens if all the other opposition (Apart from the DA) decide to form an alliance with the Cape Party? What happens for instance if the strategy of the Cape Party over the next 5 years is to educate voters right down to grass roots level. Ie: strive to get a candidate in every ward of every municipality, in every district, in every province and aggressively campaigns not only for Cape independence but for the greater good? Any party that does that will be successful. The bigger parties (read ANC) rely on the traditional mass vote and campaign aggressively just before an election, what happens if the grasp on that vote is lessened?

What if in the Western Cape the official opposition to the DA is the Cape Party? How well do you think that province will be run? The result could be awesome don't you think?

Yes the main objective of the Cape Party is for independence, their vision is very similar for the rest of the country. To give the power of the country to it's citizens.
 
I honestly have no time for the Cape Party.

Your idea of the Cape Party forming an alliance etc etc... whilst PASSABLY good in theory, will never happen in reality. Any party that allies with a party whose primary reason for existing is to break up this country, should be treated with utter contempt.

Worse than the ANC?

That's fair enough dude, no arguments from me :D

Dude it was just a theory, one if carried out correctly and with motivation will be successful, the only thing now is to see what the strategy of the party is.


I get your sentiments about breaking up South Africa really I do, but S.A. as the country we know and love is edging closer and closer to the point of no return. I wish it wasn't but it is. What happens when everyone has run out of money, after the government has taxed people to the point where it is no longer viable to work and live in S.A.? And the government cannot help the people any longer? Where are you going to go? Emigrate? Stay put and be an optimist just like they were in Zims until the whole house of cards comes tumbling down? Wouldn't you feel better if there was a place you could go if that happens? A place where you would be safe etc?
 
I don't think the theory would ever be succesful, mostly because the Cape Party will start out all altruistic, but when they have even the slightest bit of power they will start getting corrupt and become like every other party out there.

You see I disagree with that sentiment, I don't think this country is heading to the point of no return.... There is TOO much commerce in this country unlike in Zim... this government runs the country, to a degree.. but at the beck and call of commerce to a degree, who won't let certain things happen. And alot of politicians are now VERY rich because of that commerce, so they'll do whatever they can to protect it.
