They should place this sign at the Parliament entrance doors, at least the EFF are already well equipped.

It may not be Friday, but I assure you, it will be action night! It won't be SONA without a fight.

I kid you not, I've just made some popcorn and a cup of tea. Plonked on the sofa and ready for tonight's big fight live from the madir city.

Just give me the summary afterwards, on a scale from 1-10 how ****ed the country is

 

[Vox Populi Vox Dei]

Can't Ramaphosa just give his SONA from Luthuli House, streamed via Youtube?

EFF's giving free BMW's to everyone who votes for them! (redeemable after they come into power and, never.)

I'm just here for the EFF, not the election speech...

So drinking game:
- "point of order" = 1 swig of beer
- "out of order" = down the rest of drink
- "we are on the right track/path" = 1 shot
- "[investors] are excited" = 1 shot with left hand

I'll do you one better, The President of the Republic will be speaking tonight.
