SA Politics Thread Part 10 : The GNU Has Crashed

[Agent67]

waste of time ....

It is all about the blue lights. Once you taste that, nothing else matters. Those lights have some effects on the brains below it.

JFC DA... really playing into the narrative of being a weak party.

I see the verkramptes have arrived.

DA's put the ball again in ANC's court. John said in the press conference that if the ANC wants to remove the DA over this, so be it.

All the President did was to remove an ill disciplined Deputy Minister, the DA needs to provide the President with a name for a replacement, no need for this drama.

50% + 1

Do you see 50% + 1 voting for John or anyone for that matter?

Add more context:
The President has selectively applied the rules, by removing an ill disciplined Deputy Minister, while not applying the same to ANC ministers who have done the same, as well as those implicated in corruption....

Double standards are the issue.

 

[R13...]

So far:

1. DA says it will withdraw from the National Dialogue
2. DA will vote against department budgets with corrupt ministers

Damp squibs. Cyril should have proceeded to Spain. None of these DA conferences ever yield anything in the way of promised fireworks

DA will institute a MONC against Rama himself if he doesn't come to the table and fast...

The DA thrives on drama, that is how they are able to spend the funders millions in between elections.

Seeing as you know how DA spends millions, how does the ANC spend its millions from Motsepe, Chancellor House and Batho Batho Trust?

So just another threat then.

I'm disappointed by this. He fired one of their ministers without even consulting them. He took direct aim at them.

The best they can come up with is "we won't attend your dialogue (which won't yield anything anyway) and issue another threat".

Cyril is testing the boundaries of what he can get away with, and so far it seems like quite a bit...

Exactly the arrogance John talked about.

The way I registered it is that if Ramaphosa doesn't do something about those ministers and change the ANC's attitude towards GNU, it'll eventually end in DA calling a MONC.

Is acting stupid your career?

Oh, wait, you're a Khongolose supporter, you're stupid from birth.

Oh feisty, how does your studio feels after that DA damp squib?

The DA is actually playing this quite well, the pressure is clearly on Ramaphosa and the ANC and the mask is slipping more and more everyday. This was such an own goal for Ramaphosa just gave the DA the ammo in the long term
