The SA Politics Thread Part 6

[wingnut771]

We know what we’re trying to avoid but the ANC don’t need the DA to oust Ramaphosa. That’s an internal matter and can be easily swung in parliament without DA support.

What you guys fail to comprehend is that even within Ramaphosa’s ANC the EFF is still the more palatable partner in comparison to the DA.

ANC/EFF/IFP easily form a government. Especially now that Julius has backed down from his previous demands. All he wants now is the DA out and deputy speaker so be careful what you wish for or what supporting the DA’s hard line may result in.

All this obviously means is that the IFP lose governance of KZN.

Sure, if you believe that flip flopper.

That's not a consensus even within the ANC itself, who find that the EFF is a very demanding coalition partner.

And what do you think the DA is?

I want this ANC/DA led GNU as much as anyone else but I’m not going to wear blinkers regarding the DA.

From GNU to NU in less than a week

 

[Agent67]

Who’s in the GNU?

ANC, DA, IFP, GOOD, PAC, PA, VF+.

 

[ShaunSA]

A vote for the DA, IFP, GOOD, PAC, PA, VF+ is a vote for the ANC

Damn that's a mouthful

Technically wrong. They'd have a bigger platform to push their ideas to the front.

That's also a possibility. People take vows when they get married, and often one of them make their utmost best to make it work.

You can make 1001 vows. But if you choose the wrong partner to make them with you're ****ed

Local elections are 2026? GNU must last long enough that NPE can be at the same time

That's my point. But often, one doesn't know this until they start acting up.
