Speaking at a press conference at the ANCYL's conference in Limpopo on Sunday, Malema said he would not take personal responsibility for his remarks regarding Zimbabwe last week.

He said he "can't understand" why he had been rebuked for his statements on Zimbabwe, as the views expressed was not his, but those of the youth league.

"We [the ANCYL] did not sneak out of the country [to visit Zimbabwe]," he said. "We had the blessings of President Zuma," Malema told South African Broadcasting Corporation news.

He said he was shocked about the way he had been rebuked by Zuma.

"Even [former] president Thabo Mbeki, when he differed with the youth league, and the youth league had taken firm radical positions against him, he never did that," he said.

Zuma said at a news conference in Durban on Saturday that Malema's conduct was "alien to the ANC" and criticised the youth league leader for defying the court ruling which banned the singing of the "dubul' ibhunu" (shoot the boer) song.

He also condemned Malema for his treatment of a British journalist during a press conference and for the statements he made about the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) after his visit to Zimbabwe.

Zuma said he had spoken to Malema by telephone about what happened in Zimbabwe and how he had treated the reporter.

"I still want to know in a meeting what we did wrong," he said.

"I have not done anything to undermine the ANC."

He said he was prepared to face any action taken against him.

I can agree with that. Everything his done so far is part of the ANC culture.
 
Malema didn’t call the reporter a b@stard, he thought the guy’s name was Ted (you know the leader of the counter revolutionaries Ted Vos)……. So he was calling him Baas Ted….

Sad to see how fragile our country is?
One idiot loadmouth and everything turns upside down - I never knew about this guy a year or further back, thanks media - you made a monster.
Now how do we get rid of him?
The masses all love him, i mean they still have very little after 1994, most of even worse off than before.
If you have nothing to start with, you have nothing to lose.

Your first two sentences contradict the last two. He is not simply some "loud mouth", he is a major threat that has brought out the dormant hostility and dissatisfaction of the poor, and led to increased hostility and tension amongst the races.

He also called him "a gent", not "agent" - he just spoke quickly so the pause between the two words was lost.

They actually have a lot to lose. Have a look at the people in zim, do you think they have lost nothing. It is a tragedy to lose your food security.

They do not feel like they have lost anything. If they did old bob would have been shot a very long time ago.
