All was well with her until she decided to challenge Pravin and Cyril.

She's now being kicked out and humiliated by Ramaphosa's syndicate.

It seems the only people that can challenge them and not be touched expect by the deranged media such as News24 is Paul Mashatile and Panyaza Lesufi.

Poor Pravin has been dead for a while now, can we give him a break?

I have never had any interest in meeting anyone on this forum personally.

In fact I feel like my engagement here would be negatively impacted if I knew people personally. So as long as everyone is ticking, I honestly have no interest in what makes them tick.

Forums offer anonymity. They allow people to say what they would not say face-to-face. Personal encounters also don't allow for obfuscation, evasiveness, racism, dismissal of opinion and the pushing of agendas without being called out there and then and not being able to hide.

I try not to say anything here that I wouldn't say to someone's face.

that's why I am not into reality shows.

Reality shows are mostly scripted to increase audience ratings. There is little reality in reality shows.

The whole Afriforum operating model is based on white Afrikaner victimhood so it's honestly not much of a surprise.

It's not that different to the ANC model, just with the skin colours swapped...

Difference is that AfriForum’s white victimhood is imaginary for the most part.

 

[ToxicBunny]

At least Afriforums is imaginary, the ANC's is entirely self-made.

 

[Hush9300]

The whole Afriforum operating model is based on white Afrikaner victimhood so it's honestly not much of a surprise.

Much like the ANC's modus operandi being apartheid... Even to this day.

ANC in for a bruising in the next local government elections

DA polling suggests that if South Africans voted today, the ANC would not get more than 20% of the vote in Johannesburg

The ANC will face its most devastating loss yet in the next local government elections if it does not urgently address the cost-of-living crisis and service-delivery backlogs.

The DA’s polling, which has previously been accurate, suggests that if South Africans voted today, the ANC would not get more than 20% of the vote in Johannesburg.

With the DA putting forward its former leader, Helen Zille, as the party’s mayoral candidate for Johannesburg, the DA could emerge as the party with the most votes for the first time in SA’s financial hub.

The PA is also giving the DA a run for their money in Cape Town, which, according to the DA’s own polling, shows that the PA could win at least 8% of the vote in that metro.

According to the DA poll, the MK party could lose about 5% of the vote in eThekwini and if traditional ANC voters stay away from the polls again in that metro, it could make the IFP and DA the two biggest parties in KwaZulu-Natal.

Political analyst Susan Booysen says there is no reason to doubt the DA’s polling,

“The quality of the polling looks solid. There is definitely been a rise in support for the DA in urban centres in recent elections, and the party has benefited from ANC voters not coming out on election day,” Booysen said

“It is long way to go but I think the DA is already looking strong with the party already polling in Johannesburg with 38%, and that is before Zille is on the ground, which will further energise the party. However, the DA had better watch its back in Cape Town, with the PA winning over some coloured voters there, which is the majority of people in the City of Cape Town,” Sussman said.

The spectacular collapse of the ANC empire is glorious to watch.

Also remember when the usual suspects were supporting Lesufi's nonsense? How is that going?

ANC insiders who spoke to Business Day spoke did not dispute the outcome of the DA polling, with one Luthuli House staffer, who could only speak on condition off anonymity, admitting things could be worse.

“Our information shows the ANC could get as little as 12% [of the vote] in Johannesburg. The leadership of the province and city are accountable, as they refused the national leadership advice to enter a coalition with the DA,” the source said.
