EFF abstained apparently.Who has how many seats in the legislature?
Agreed. I think that MacG podcast episode definitely won some people over to DA.Indeed.
On a side note I quite enjoyed JS appearance on the Macg podcast (watched the whole episode last night), a much better and more open discussion than the one from Roman.
but but ROADKILL.... DA BAD REEEEEAgreed. I think that MacG podcast episode definitely won some people over to DA.
He banna, what is the problem with the Fighters? they dont like Panyaza or what?
It's the EFF, they probably couldn't tell you why they abstained. And their move is about as useful as the DA nominating Msimang. It's not as if anyone wants the sex in the office man as premier of anything.He banna, what is the problem with the Fighters? they dont like Panyaza or what?
That's a different chap you are thinking about, I forgot his name. But apparently Solly also has a tendency of putting his hands where they don't belong if his accuser is to be believed.It's the EFF, they probably couldn't tell you why they abstained.

Edit: Solly is the one who was recorded having sex with a woman in his office. Unless there are two Sollies with the same name.
