And I thought the DA love polls, why did they delete this one? Or maybe they only love polls that tells them what they want to hear?

You'd think if it was run as well as you claim it is then it'd show up in by-election results in Tshwane. In the two by-elections since the Auctioneer SA mayor was installed, the DA has either greatly increased their vote share (last week) or very marginally down (66 -> 63%, and the latter was caused by a surge in the FF vote who are not part of the governing coalition in Tshwane).

The DA did a poll, don't tell me you don't believe a DA poll?

Whose fault is it that the DA, after an embarrassing weekend decided to do that poll on Tshwane government? And when it did not say what they wanted to hear they promptly delete it?

The PR machinery is failing and the DA is exposed, maybe they can try throwing more money at it.

So much of reaching over a Twitter poll

You are so predictable it's actually funny.

It's what Tony Yengeni was convicted for. Surprised it took them so long. This is how they should have responded to Ramaphosa sacking their deputy minister...

The whole government should be locked up.

They're instead making another knee jerk reaction. It's amateur hour in the DA. They should have laid that charge weeks ago. The best approach would have been to have her formally investigated by parliament. The other parties in parliament may have supported it. Second best was public protector which could lead to charges. Though the current PP is a CR lackey of doubtful competence who cares more to keep the job than protecting the public.

I don't understand relation between laying of charges and sacking deputy. Are you suggesting it is a tit-for-tat and DA would have remained quiet if their deputy wasn't sacked ?

@MalcomZ - how come no one is asking this question to Zille/DA on the twitter ? It seems like DA is doing exactly what they accuse Zuma of doing. He keeps on threatening to spill the beans if something happens to him but he keeps quiet otherwise.

They are rattled, and throwing everything but with great care not to put their jobs at risk.

The moaned about how unprincipled Cyril is and how he sacrificed a principled Whitfield to appease ANC factions, I mean that's very good grounds for a MONC, but since that threatens their jobs they are reluctant to do it.
