The DA's stance on Mashaba being xenophobic now proves what flip floppers they are.

His stances on foreign nationals were actually more radical when he was with the DA and they defended him.

Turns out the EFF are not the only flip floppers.

You say this like its a revelation... All political parties and politicians are flip floppers.
 
Shaun the sheep still ticking along.

The odds favour ActionSA because Pretoria’s sewerage plant is located in the ward. The DA put out the repairs to tender, which was given to a black-empowered company that failed to stem the poop leak into the Apies River from the Rooiwal treatment plant, which runs through the ward. The acrid-smell is now blamed on the DA-led city government and sparked the resignation of Coetzee from the local ruling party.

I wonder if DA is ever going to take responsibility for anything in Tshwane, if it's not the EFF it is some BEE empowered company or BEE empowered employees left behind by the ANC.

Well, if a non BEE company was used, the sewage plant would have been fixed and for a lower cost. But the racist law says it has to be a BEE company. The DA has to obey legislation.

It will be a battle of the ages on Wednesday, which might set the tone for the run-up to 2024.
The by-election is viewed a potential political watershed if ActionSA wins the ward and could give an indication how the multiracial electorate in South Africa are putting their voting feet and how they could do so in the national election in 2024. The strength of opposition parties collectively could see the liberation party, the ANC, lose its over-50% average in national elections. Significantly, the ANC dropped below 50% in the general municipal poll last year for the first time since democracy in 1994.

It's not the DA themselves that blamed anyone:
The DA city government is blamed for the stench coming from it after it awarded its upgrade to a black empowerment company, which failed to address the plant leaking into the Apies River

It was in the article.

How about using companies based on merit, cost and effectiveness? Radical idea, I know...

Cosmik Debris is talking nonsense as usual, why are BEE companies not a problem for the DA in the WC but are suddenly a problem when the DA fails to deliver in Tshwane?

How is it a defence? More like a statement? No blame thrown?

It's quite clear that whoever that is does not believe the DA is to blame for the failure to fix the sewage plant and is going to great lengths to find reasonable explanations like blaming it on some BEE company?
