The SA Politics Thread Part 6

[Sideshow Bob]

You fit in nicely with Zille's new right wing DA.

I don't really buy his superior genes act. We need ancestry.com proof, otherwise I can also say I am King of Scotland.

I do have a contender for funniest and most annoying flop though.

RP.

When they flop there will be much reeing and walls o text from our resident sovereign citizen nut jobs.

Funnily enough, they have quite a lot of posters around here. Wonder where they get the funding. Hersov maybe?

Ouma Patty Pans funders are quite happy

Although the odds of her making it back or BOSA and Rise actually getting a seat/s is iffy at best

Aunty Pat sealed her fate when she went into coalition with the ANC, much like the PA will find out.

What's wrong with right wing?

 

[wingnut771]

How do "you" whites decide if it is guilt or not? Do you have meetings in NGK or braaiside or is it something only high IQ would understand ?

If you wear 3 beanies then it's white guilt.

I doubt it to be honest...

Knobhead-Hersov threw his weight behind the PA and has now gone very silent when I think the move backfired on him.

Who said there's anything wrong with it? Right wingers are taking over all over the world, you have chosen the right side, as will be proven when President Moonshot is giving his speech from the Union Buildings soon.

I already told you he doesn't want the job.

Yes, that's what is going to make him even more legendary, Zuma also did not want to be President.

I actually read somewhere (Biznews maybe?) that Hersov has gone cold funding the PA. Probably funded by Gayton's gangster mates.

Did the DA go to court for their ad or were they happy for the SABC to put out their fire?

DA vs SABC: Icasa to hear dispute over legality of public broadcaster's rejection of flag-burning ad | News24

The SABC, as a national public broadcaster, does not have the authority to refuse to air "lawful" and technically compliant adverts.

This is all I could find. Glad the ad still haunts you.

782K views and counting.

So the SRF daily tracking:

- ANC - 43%
- DA - 23.2.%
- MK - 11.3%
- EFF - 10.1%
- Others - 8.1%
- IFP - 4.3%

If these were the actual results - possible coalitions would be:

ANC/DA - 66.2%
ANC/MK - 54.3%
ANC/EFF - 53.1%
ANC/Others - 51.1%

IFP don't have enough to help the ANC and I am not sure they would do an ANC/Other/IFP coalition - that sounds messy.

Will be interesting to see which way this goes.

ANC/EFF is what I would bet on, I think. JuJu for DP. I think the ANC might be more open to working with the EFF over the DA.

ANC and DA would be the best bet for SA, with JP as DP perhaps.

I still think we might see an ANC minority gov at the mercy of the DA. Rather than a solid DA/ANC coalition. Rama and co aren't big fans of EFF on national level, although ANC GP and ANC KZN are fans...

But at this point, anything can happen.

I would have thought they would go for an urgent interdict to compel SABC to show the ad.

At the mercy of the DA? Kahle PrimeSteak, what are you saying now?

 

[Agent67]

Ah, more white guilt. @doctorwho, maybe this ones for you.

Where are you getting white guilt from? Neil De Beer is as anti-ANC now as it gets...

The Special Votes (voting at a different station than your registered one) was a very interesting tidbit in terms of which party is disproportionally to be more ANC than the opposition. Potentially 1m+ votes that may be up in the air.

Obviously from him being Mandela's bodyguard.

If you think the DA is right-wing... Boy, oh boy, you'll probably stroke out when you encounter ACDP or VF+.

We had all the stats when voting was happening and it all died down after that, I wonder what happened? I was looking forward to a round up of the turnout numbers after voting is done.

I think both ANC GP and ANC KZN are "EFF" likers in so much as they see them as a way to remain in power more than anything else, its not about ideological similarity or anything of the sort.
