Except this goes against clear evidence that the large majority of municipalities with the best audit outcomes either have a DA majority or a DA-led coalition. All the worst ones are run by the ANC so surely by your logic, we should kick out the ANC at every opportunity?

That does not in any way do away with the fact that the DA left a mess of proportions never seen before in the capital.

You can kick out the ANC if you want, but the DA is clearly isolated and alone and does not have the numbers.

That's because you can't make somebody work if they don't want to (or can't). Just like you can't make somebody read with comprehension when they don't have the ability.

You are correct, the DA was totally not interested in working in Tshwane, they just thought things would happen on their own and we're shocked when it didn't happen.

Similar to the mess that Dada has created in the economic heartland of SA? or worse?

Not an unreasonable expectation when the City employs thousands of people to do the work. But somehow the DA has to come and do it for them? Must be ANC thinking.

Joburg has not had an adverse audit, so I will leave it to you to make up your mind which is worse.

You know when you are defending nonsense you can't even tell your argument makes no sense, was the DA councillors not employed and paid by the same city?

Or did they forget they were being paid and that came with the expectation of actually doing some work?

You know, I know how councillors work. They contact the relevant department to sort out whatever the problem is. They are not employed to physically fix things. Maybe that's the problem in SA. Too many people (including those that are actually paid to fix things) believe their councillor must do it.
Really bud? Start trying to be honest, just a little bit at a time will help.
