I like the response from COPE (I think) with regards to how the various coalition-parties will manage to work together. The feedback was:

South Africa’s biggest forum. Discuss, discover, and connect with thousands of members.

I think the EFF isn't so chummy with the idea of Herman Mashaba.
Either they won't dump Zuma because that's what the opposition wants or he has a dossier with all their skeletons.
Besides those I cannot fathom why they keep propping up this disaster of a 'president'.
Any idea why?
Yes, the EFF want a different candidate. I think the EFF is going to abstain from voting, which will give JHB to the ANC, but is going to be very messy.
Doesn't fit with their desire to remove the trough from the ANC snouts... Joburg is the biggest troughYes, the EFF want a different candidate. I think the EFF is going to abstain from voting, which will give JHB to the ANC, but is going to be very messy.

Agree, not sure how the EFF is going to handle this. The DA said they will not change their mayor candidate.

What has Mashaba done to Malema/others in the EFF? I don't know their history, so perhaps somebody knows.
In contrast, Mashaba has made damning statements against the poor in South Africa that have stirred controversy and backlash. Mashaba once quipped: “It’s interesting that you can expect poor people to be leaders. That is looking for trouble in any given situation”. The DA leader was responding to criticism after he made a statement linking poor people to corruption.
Mashaba also once commented that BEE policies were unfavourable because they make businesses take into account “the race and social background of potential applicants instead of considering an applicant’s skill set and qualifications”. He concluded that “the notion of empowering the previously disadvantaged is a noble ideal, but racist”.
Correct, that is why I think they will abstain from voting.

This is a guy who together with his capitalist buddies went to the UN to oppose Affirmative Action. The EFF cannot be seen dead endorsing such a guy, in this instance the EFF philosophy on AA/BEE matches with that of the ANC (and of most black people in South Africa).What has Mashaba done to Malema/others in the EFF?
