We can actually. I mean they hyped him up as the second coming of Mandela. And of course, that image was seared into minds...
But also, I think people were so desperate for a non-Zuma-esque leader at the time, that they'd take anyone who made the right noises...

EFF talk. Those two things were among the EFF's demands last year for a coalition with ANC nationally...
And anyway, we aren't federal, so that isn't even possible. And if they actually manage to do that **** in GP, then they can devolve policing and transport to WC mos...?

That's RET talk. It's what makes Lesufi so dangerous. He buys into this retarded ANC ideology that the state must control everything. Hell they can't do something as simple as act against obvious corruption at the Tembisa hospital yet think setting up a state pharmaceutical company is a good idea? Moronic in the extreme. Medication at government depos already gets sold off to connected people running their own pharmacies.

RET and EFF are in the same WhatsApp group.
Hence, why I always use the term RET Azanians when talking about EFF/ANC...
Precisely.

WC ANC delays provincial conference to finalise branch nomination process
The party says the December national conference process to finalise leadership nominations has to be completed before 25 October.

Shem.
But on a side note, I think ANC WC will be wiped out in 2024. Since both DA and ASA will just nail their support to the ground.

Government needs the VAT on food so that they can collect from those who can still afford to buy it in order to pay grants to everyone else.

They can stop paying grants and feed people through the school system.

Agreed.
John did say he's trying to position the party more towards bread-and-butter issues. So far it seems it's working.

Paywalled. And who exactly is surprised?

I would imagine none of the political parties are happy with being forced to allow in independents.

It depends on their stance towards electoral reform.
I know DA and ASA are open for it, but not sure about the others... We know ANC and EFF aren't happy...

Basic food items, those who live large must be taxed, remember how much food we waste when millions are going hungry, might as well get some extra tax from that.
