On a side note, seems like every recent small party is "the fastest growing party in SA"... ASA does it too...

RET and EFF will unite in some way. As I said, what happens at the end of the year will be the final battle for the ANC. If RET loses, most of them will probably head out to EFF, or ATM.

It'll have coalition backing, so it is the UF. Most likely discussed and ****.
