The so-called ANC’s Renewal Commission will never renew anything because the ANCs raison d’etre has always been, and will continue to be a group of reactionary backward looking “Old Farts” (Excuse my French), who dance around with blinkers on their heads wearing ANC regalia, spouting platitudes about RENEWING the country. I doubt whether any of them actually know the meaning of “renewal”.
Ramaphosa’s arrogant rejection of the “Step Aside” rule is clearly simply an attempt to regain his status in the ANC, but unfortunately, for the rest of us, this is a step backwards, not a step aside. Step Aside was merely a euphemism used to mislead the public into thinking that it was ‘justice in action’; but all it did, when it was occasionally used, was delay the process of punishing corrupt individuals; mostly holding positions of power – from being prosecuted and jailed for crimes against their own people.
Just today it was announced in the media that the ANC intends to abolish TV licences and replace them with something called “Household Tax”. They must be incredibly naive to think that the public will simply accept this transparent move. “Pull the other one Mr President.” You are already crippling taxpayers in so many ways. BIG BROTHER; MEANING THE TAXPAYERS THIS TIME, IS AWARE OF ALL YOUR TRICKS!
The upper echelon who are supposed to be running our country will probably only wake-up when ‘Juliaas ‘ barges into Parliament one day and kicks them all out ‘neck and crop’ and takes over.
Ramaphosa’s pathetic attempt to rally the party’s resources (what resources?) by once again talking a whole lot of Cr*%P about rebuilding the economy and pulling Eskom out of the fire will not fool anyone with an ounce of common sense. (By the way “sense is not common”)
The only recourse he has to save Eskom is to go ‘cap in hand’ to big business and ask them to fork out some more ‘moola’ because no one else has money any more (If you don’t believe me; just look at your supermarket trolley and see how much groceries you get for R1000-00 these days!!! Alternatively; he can look under his bed and haul out some PEDIGREE COW MONEY to save Eskom.
Or he can pop over and visit his buddy Putin for help!
Or he can put up the price of petrol ONCE AGAIN; thus crippling the economy even more!
According to the Auditor General, South Africa’s army; if you can call it that! is riddled with corruption and fraud, (to the tune of over 6 billion Rand) and the perpetrators are not being prosecuted or even investigated; so; if the worst comes to the worst and our country is attacked for some reason, we would clearly not be in a position to defend ourselves.
THE STATE OF DISASTER CONTINUES …
