Both sides are telling half the story if you ask me.

Should be easy enough for Whitfield to prove he did submit a request for approval, then it paints Squirrel into a corner since it was his departments lack of response that caused this issue, not Whitfields lack of request.
Nah, nowhere does the Presidency claim he did not submit a request, a lack of response still does not give Whitfield permission to travel.

He could have indicated to his party that he did not get a response and the DA was supposed to take it up with the President through the communication channels.

The fact that Whitfield apologise for taking the trip without approval cooked his goose.
 
Yes there is, Paul is corrupt AF, he lives far far far beyond his means, we all know it, and his families involvement makes this tender corrupt AF as well.

I'll happily retract that assertion should someone be able to show what Bellamont Gaming actually brings to the table, other than political connections.
@ShaunSA - won't you recommend our top notch investigator to Shamila aunty next time you have a chow with her ? Imagine the scandal of a mybb sleuth from Natal exposing our DP. Generations will tell the tale.
 
The appointment was investigated by the PP and no evidence of irregularity was found, but since you seem to disagree, can you post your evidence and let's see?
You would have to be special kind of moron to think any random kid without political connections could have made that same jump PP investigation or no.
 
The DA must supply the President with the name or names of candidates to replace Whitfield and we move on, no one has time for all this drama.

Are you able to provide evidence that she was improperly hired, Yebo noma Cha?
 
All John has to do is to get another supremely competent person from his party and offer them as replacement.

No need for drama. He can easily find supremely competent person from DA. I can give at least 75 names on this mybb, if he asks me.


Prior to the removal of Mr Whitfield, I informed Minister John Steenhuisen as the leader of the Democratic Alliance that I had decided to remove Mr Whitfield from his position as Deputy Minister and that I expect him to present to me for approval a replacement for Mr Whitfield from his party as the DA is entitled to a Deputy Minister as agreed.
 
This is what the Greek Socrates thought of democracy:

Socrates was critical of democracy, believing that only those who are educated and knowledgeable should participate in decision-making, rather than allowing everyone to vote regardless of their understanding. He argued that democracy could lead to demagoguery and poor governance, as uneducated voters might be easily swayed by persuasive but misleading rhetoric.

Does his thinking still fit?
Meanwhile “educated” New Yorkers are convinced Mamdani is the man for the job. Educated is relative

He is not saying which PP actually ok'd it. The one who was so far up the anc arses it wasnt funny

That's english and in pedi it is temokrasi, in the same as borrowed from English. Actually in pedi there's a phrase for democracy better than the borrowing in Afrikaans
Damn, those bloody Greeks stole English words and made a typo? :oops:

Demos = People
Kratos = Power

History being written before our very eyes!

Watch out, I'll tell that other @R13... to lock you up again.
