He and John do seem to be competing at the buffet table either way

Geordin is in some other league tbh. He is probably my weight but I have nfi how he accumulated half his weight on the chin.

Yawn.

Never heard of her. Don't worry, we will get the usual media hit pieces saying that the DA lost someone valuable and it shows that black people do not fell comfortable within the DA etc.

Yup, I'm absolutely ecstatic about them...
Gogo's comment on this is pretty funny tho:

Zille did not take kindly to Tarabella-Marchesi's comments, saying:

People like her want to make a splash when they make their next political move and use me as click-bait. As far as I can recall, I do not think that I ever had any interaction with her. She was in Parliament. I am based at the DA's federal head office.

But I thought Panyazi was steadily dropping Gauteng's unemployment with all his cadre jobs? @TheChamp you must be fuming

He will just be chairing and facilitating, not promoting anything, it's not his gig.

Gauteng has more than double the population of the Western Cape, dealing with that amount of people in terms of service delivery and employment is nie pap en vleis.

"With the return of Helen and the [leadership of] Steenhuisen, I saw a shift towards consolidation.

"They are basically consolidating their 20% vote. That means excluding the majority voters," she claimed.

A momentous occasion in SA politics!

They got the memo but they clearly missed something in translating "time to eat" into colonial speak.

Maybe we finally have a chance to see Beaumont and John settle this once and for all, it would be a pity if they waste this opportunity.

If they don't face off like this, then IDC.

The DA want to leave themselves weasel room,

The DA wants the declaration to read:

Should the pact be in a position to form a government, nationally or in any province after the 2024 election, every member of the pact commits itself to remaining loyal to the pact and not forming a government with the ANC or the EFF.

He told News24 that the DA was willing to commit to the multiparty coalition formation if the combined political pact clinches 51%.

"Not only has the DA committed to signing the declaration but advanced the wording of it. It is a door that is not already open; it is a door that has been walked into significantly already. The notion that the DA has been dragged kicking and screaming through the water is simply not true," Steenhuisen said.

DA willing to renounce ANC coalition talks if moonshot pact gets majority in 2024 | News24

The pointed factor for the coalition convention backed by the DA, ActionSA, IFP and Freedom Front Plus, will be a brawl about whether a final declaration is signed barring political parties from a working relationship with the EFF and the ANC.
