I think the demarcation board should split Hammanskraal off from evil Pretoria.

I am sure the DA would be very happy to govern just the larney surbubs, but the reality of governing in South Africa means you can't pound yourself on the chest boasting about good governance if you can't govern in poor areas.
This is the real test of governance, and so far they are failing miserably.

But other times when he makes fun of the DA he's not I suppose? You must make up your mind.

You don't think the missing blue colour is a red flag?
How's it going in Rustenburg where township and larney suburbs have collapsed.

The Rustenburg blame game: Residents complain of poor service delivery, mayor blames community | City Press
The R3.3 billion Rustenburg Rapid Transport (RRT) system, which is yet to become operational more than 10 years after its inception, has become a headache for the Rustenburg Local Municipality, which is already struggling with service delivery challenges that include aging water and sanitation...

It's worse off now than in 1994 Township and Larney suburb.

It must be an odd thing for the DA to find themselves having to account for anything, they are used to holding others accountable.

For once, Roman Cabanac brought up a valid point and he is almost always pro DA.
He says the DA are refusing to work with PA, not because they are a "gangster party" but more because they see them as a threat.
DA have worked with "gangster parties" before as they did to win Cape Town initially circa 2006.
A better strategy from DA would have been to work with PA, give them their positions and then break them down from within.
DA's current strategy will likely lose them more votes to PA next year. PA may be one of the surprise packages of 2024, the way things are going.

Not last time I checked, the tap water is apparently fit for human consumption, no matter how unpalatable it looks.

Gayton is a smarter politician than people think. Smart politicans and good people arent always the same. He speaks to people in language they can understand and actually relates to a large extent, better than the ANC and DA, hence they are bleeding votes to him.
He has already said he will go into bed with who gives his guys more jobs, so he isint a flip flopper.
He is also one of the few politicians in SA that gladly owns the right wing label and will not deny it.
As @TheChamp has pointed out before, there have been predictions of the PA's imminent demise on Mybb yet all evidence points that they are here to stay.

Yes, lets see how many right wingers there are, but I feel this is where the country is going, right wing.

So the people he speaks to are dumb then. Because it's in a language they understand. Because they're kommin like that. Like Trump supporters...

They are responsible for water security at resource level, that's why you have never seen a DWS worker fixing a water leak in your street.

Who were these "gangster parties"? ID, PAC, VF+, ACDP? Who exactly?
