Maybe my happy juices are flowing a bit more than usual... but I fail to see/hear any racism...again all I am hearing a disappointed Connie ...

Yes but the only reason she is disappointed is because Thandeka is black and was voted in by all the Indians there

Methinks Thandeka should have stood for Ward Councilor :whistling:

You're... very funny... hey?

I did say that I... should be corrected if I misunderstand...
It a good day -- happy juices are flowing ... so all in all, just a bit of Connie, human drama... she did after all not throw a three year old into a pool...

It depends, what disease did she have/medication did she take before this incident? Memory might be affected.

The invisible three-year-old must've used its power of transparency as a form of self-defence at the time.

That's a bit optimistic. The ANC would need to fall below 45% imho - otherwise they'll just remain in power with a coalition.
Like @ToxicBunny said, the way things are spiralling out of control electorally for ANC (i.e. by the amounts of support they're losing, hell they're polling themselves at 48% max), it's not too impossible anymore.

The way I see it, they'll be in the executive, but I guess the order is what will differ. Either JS Pres/Mashaba Deputy or the other way around.

So for me the big question is who is going to come out the winner from the ANC's electoral collapse. If its groups like ActionSA/DA then things can possibly look up, if its groups like the EFF then I dunno.

I have it on good authority that the 3 year olds father works at Denel. He was wearing their latest cloaking device. Must have glitch a bit and afforded the privileged few a quick glimpse.

Well, going by by-elections since 2021 LGE, the layout is like this:

Along the coast DA and IFP are the big winners, Up north (LM, MP and NW), the EFF is winning the most, in GP there isn't a clear winner, since it seems everyone is winning a bit from ANC there. We don't know what the pattern in FS is, since there hasn't been any.

I think the UF parties and some newcomers like RISE will come out on top. With the EFF still being the thorn in the side that they are...
