This Yozi dude is a tool. Maybe he should go back to the ECape, and tell us which province better serves the poor. The irony, is that Cape Town is the city with the LOWEST income disparity in South Africa. And yet the same ANCYL LIARS electioneer by calling it an apartheid province and whatever else.

But its cool, peoples eyes are opening up to the YL and the ANC.

Yozi, give it up boy, your party is busy dying.

*Facepalm* Sigh... I think we need a new institution or ideology rather then politics. Can we not privatize the state? At least we will see some service delivery. Wow its really fun switching the nationalization thing on its head. It seems that the political system is failing so badly maybe getting private institutions to run the country we might get leka discount on tax or loyalty points with our water spending....

"there was no tangible proof of this on the ground."

Cause you've burned it all TO the ground you mullets.

I think it is past time that government (all three branches) start looking at the idea of changing the way they do things. A bit of lateral thinking may be in order here. Obviously the real bosses (the public) are not happy with the way that their employees are doing things.

MommaC, let me ask you the question I always ask, first from you, what was burnt to the ground & in which location? Zille is talking about 76% of her budget, where & what has she done with it. Don`t tell me about houses from a report of 2011 plz, say in Khayelitsha 500 rdp houses were built, in Site C this is what was done, in Nyanga, in Gugs etc. Its easy to believe anything coming from Zille but she said nothing on this report.

Cornelius, we don`t bash the DA but we tell you don`t act as if your DA is doing better, they have their own faults just like us the ANC, whether the ANC is worse does not justify niks, they all political parties.

What we need is a system whereby politicians do not financially gain ANYTHING by been a member of parliament or a policy maker. They must declare everything they own, and if they fail during their term in office, all their assets are seized as punishment and given back to the people.

Go read the budget. Its in the public domain.

What the communities fail to realise is that if you burn down a school then the price of re-building that school has to come from somewhere. That means that there is less budget to do something else. Maybe if the communities (all over the country) could be made to understand that and be more involved with the process, then we wouldn't have this level of destruction.

Maybe have a bi-annual assessment report and if you are not up to scratch you get the boot and the next in line takes a swing at it. It seems that are longterm planning is solid, but our mid to short term planning is taking a whack. Rather then privatizing state we privatize the person where total transparency is the key word. Yeah they might be human but who lies to the extent that politicians world wide do.

Only wh*ite-minded people see good in what DA does. I mean, if there was service delivery across the WC Province, were people there going to march or complain?

A good module in this case is when whi*tes in general were the recipients of apar*the*id system's programmes, that's why bla*cks were marching and complaining. Currently it's all political parties which are not delivering, DA not exceptional at all.

So guys, stop angel-coating DA because it's wh*ite run. All politicians are entitled to protect their political interests.

Wow so how come the DA won several wards away from the anc during the last municipal election? Could it possibly be that the DA delivers to all and the non white voters are seeing this? The ancyl are known to march for no real apparent reason and this was just a publicity stunt to try and discredit the DA in the WC. Who have the only clean audits in the country. The DA build and the anc trash and then complain that they dont have houses.

Nwanawamukalaha - You know what is crazy? We have over a million people who moved to CT from the ECape, because of the abysmal quality of healthcare/education in the WCape. Because they couldnt get free housing in ECape.

Now, these folks are in CT, and already they are demanding stuff. Not realising that the housing backlog keeps growing, because of the immigration.

The townships keep getting bigger, not smaller. And this is evident from the migration.


Now, 80% of the budget, goes to people that throw their own $h17 in their own streets. Then go on violent rampgages, and kill people. A buss driver stoned, causing the death of school children. A pregnant mother in a coma, because some d1ckhead threw a brick through her window.

The protestors keep it up, we might just decide to make the townships 'ungovernable'. Cut off their free water and electricity. Blockade their roads with burning tyres. Stone taxi's...

It goes both way my friend.

I've been to ANC rallies. My father is a politician and that might say loads to his character, but I can say from 1st hand accounts that you are basing your insight into ANC based entirely on ANCYL. Who is to say the ANCYL is wrong in this case? I am not defending them, but you are taking this on faith from one lady that can not produce a single tangible display of where this elusive 76% has been spent? You point people to the DA website, but isn't that written by the hand of the DA and can be propaganda itself? Just saying mate.

They same can be said of every march organised by the ancyl to further their own agenda! They marched against the open toilets but not against the ones in the free state why? They pull students out of school to protest against the anc placing Limpopo under administration. Just because the ancyl organise a march doesnt make that march valid. The march they organised in CPT was also against the youth wage which would create jobs and gain experience for the youth. They didnt even adhere to the stipulations given to be able to hold the march which proves they have no respect for law and order and believe they are entitled to do as the please. The ancyl will never need a valid reason to strike or protest.

What do you mean? Have we even heard from Fransman in the past month? Dont you think Ive been commenting here long enough to distinguish between the ANC and the YL?

"am not defending them, but you are taking this on faith from one lady that can not produce a single tangible display of where this elusive 76% has been spent?"

Urg, in the past, whenever these things were questioned, I had a nice list with citations, explaining directly where the services were rendered, what facilities were built. Unfortunately a week later, the same person I sent the link to, would ignore the evidence, and ask the same question you are asking now.

The website I linked Dzel yesterday, showed you exactly where the 4,000 new houses are being built. It tells us exactly which community facilities, sports centres etc were constructed.

Its public knowledge dude, you can find the audits online. Not basing my 'comments on the word of one lady'. Which is what the ANC fanboys are doing in this case. Deriving their sources from hearsay and propaganda.

Im not 'upset' about the DA in this case. Im upset about these hooligans wanting to make the province ungovernable. Blocking highways off. You might enjoy these tendencies in whichever province you find yourself in. But not me.


Anyways, growing TIRED of this new tendency of commentators, to not comment on the article, but comment on the comments or comment on the commentators.

The ANCYL is nothing more than a puppet mouth piece used by bad elements in the ruling party.

I have said it for 3 years now. I knew the ANC would get rid of Malema in the end, he was a puppet used to divert attention off Zuma during his term as president.

COSATU, ANCYL and SACP are all puppet organizations used to guarantee the power structures of the ANC.

I beg to differ. It is the anc who refuses to work with the DA in the WC. The DA rule the WC and NOT the anc or their yl so it is they who should be wanting to help. Why would Zille need the yl's help when they refer to her as the madam and Lindiwe the "tea girl". Zille even agreed to meet the ancyl marchers personally to accept their memorandum if they retracted the statement that they will make CPT ungovernable, which as you know they refused to do. So in this case who is not wanting to work with the other and who is wrong? Again why did the yl make such a fuss about open toilets in CPT and not in the Free State?

if DA produced a report listing everything they do each year AND you went to go and see the delivery with your own eyes - would you stand in front of the new hospital/whatever building and STILL say I don't believe my own eyes - so therefore the DA are not delivering

Would the DA produce such a report or post on their page if it werent easily verifiable? Unlike the anc who claim to be getting tough on corruption yet we ALL can see they are not.

Of course. But what makes you think the ANC wants to work together with another party? Dang, even within the tripartheid alliance, the parties dont want to work together. We can hear Vavi lambasting the ANC yet again. The ANC will more sabotage another party, then actually working with them.

ANCYL leader Mfuso Zenzile is reported to have declared "let them go to the police...we give Zille's office seven days to repospond and if there's failure to do so within seven days, we will make the city ungovernable"...

Now, depending on the circumstances, a brazen threat to render a lawful government ungovernable using violent protests could constitute sedition or even possibly treason, should ungovernablility be found to be tantamount to an attempt to overthrow a lawfully constituted Government..

If members of the ANC are using language like "to make the city or Province ungovernable" coupled with violent protests, there is indeed a prima facia case that their conduct constitutes sedition or criminal activity akin or tantamount to it.

I think a lot of existing ANC members like myself have A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM with the way the Party is conducting itself currently, including the way it is dealing with issues of State.

@ Tikoloshe. Bravo for that comment sir. This country can work if the destructive elements like the ANCY are neutralised. Protest is one thing and its not a bad thing, but there is an inherent dishonesty in the reass for the ANCYL protests,and their threats of making the province ungovernable is actually treason or at least sedition. Hopefully the ANC will elect a leader at Mangaung who has the authority, respect, moral integrity and leadership capabilities to reign them in. JZ does not have that.

2. What's underperfoming, pupils or structures?
3. Why can't DA implement a new education system which will sharpen the mentality of pupils instead of building new schools?

What you are saying is comparable to taking construction trucks from municipalities which are close to rural places and parking them in the city centre forgeting that the same trucks will in most cases be of great use in the rural roads whereas all you have to do is change the monitoring and evaluation of the truck usage at local municipality.

The pupils from those schools will be integrated with existing schools. As for the new schools, they are in areas where more schools are required. Its really not rocket science.

"What's underperfoming, pupils or structures?"

Pupils, teachers and the principles.


"Why can't DA implement a new education system which will sharpen the mentality of pupils instead of building new schools?"

The education system falls under the national education department. The province doesnt have any say in which education system is implemented. New schools are required.

You are merely assuming that the new schools will be built in 'white areas' as you would call it. Its unfortunately not true. The new schools are being built in rural areas.

As for the closed down schools and trucks example. Lets imagine that the truck is in bad condition. The truck is used to transport children from point A to point B. But because the truck is in such a bad shape, it puts the lives of the kids in danger. Therefore, the truck was made obsolete, and the existing pupils will be getting their rides from the other, in better shape trucks.

...Guys, we've only got ourselves to blame for the State of Public education. Why don't we complain when half way through a schooling year pupils in Mpumalanga don't have text books and nobody to this day has been dismissed for this indiscretion Why don't we go to the schools on the first day of the school year and ensure the classes are up and running??

In the North West pupils are being prevented from attending school because of a road; and we accept this!!!! The pupils and the public are being used as pawns in the Mangaung power struggle and the public accepts this!!!

I can tell you in the case of Xhosaland funding is provided for schooling but in most onstances in misappropriated....approximately 80c/rand of monies allocated for service delivery doesn't reach the ground. We in the ANC cannot accept this any longer....no need to blame anyone except ourselves.

Mothlante doesn't have the character to lead this country...he has held one of three most senior positions in the movement since 2002, overseeing the demise of the Party. A lot of us here in KZN will make a big Shisamyama under that Presidents seat if he succeeds in Mangaung....he won't want to sit on it for too long that's for sure!!!! His hour of glory will maybe come when he stands on the steps of the Union Buildings with his dear Gugu, the first lady...the one who was Phosa's PA in 2002 at Luthuli House and then became a multi billion rand business lady....that will be his hour of glory then things will go very steadily downhill.

In Isizulu there is a saying that "you can't sleep when there is a snake in the house"...and he has been the snake in the ANC NEC, first undermining TM and now JZ. What goes around comes around!!!!!

Sure, the students may pay more for transport costs, being integrated into successful schools. But in the long run, they gain FAR MORE by having access to decent education.

As for the closed down schools, I dont know.

So very true and not only with regard to public education, but all aspects of social conscience.

Only once black Africans actually realise that true success in life is achieved via personal effort and determination, will the rest of the world see you as equals. To continue playing the victim only impoverishes you further.

It is time to look within, become proud of your blackness, get up...and continue to stand up...on your own merit. For surely it isn't the colour of our skin that makes a person but the attitude of our minds and hearts? Break the shackles of insecurity that your blackness has brought you in the past, stop trying to gain sympathy from the guilt of others, like a common beggar in the street. Why continue to regress, that is the lazy option and are you all not better than that?

Because honestly, time is running out as there is only so much longer that you can keep on blaming the past. Create to survive, destruction and apathy only destroys! So come on, prove the rest of us wrong and emancipate yourselves from mental slavery!

The anc is also try to change the constitution with the "Secrecy Bill". Again do you expect the opposition to keep quiet.

As pointed out by Sinudeity_ only 30% of WC is white.

The DA went from just under 50% to way over 60% for the City of Cape Town. As well as won the province.

The ANC propaganda machine can spew out as much garbage and organise service delivery protests but in the end the PEOPLE have spoken and will speak again come election time.

ANC can cry foul as much as they want to. The proof will be in the 2014 elections. If the DA increases its share once again provincially in the Western Cape they will be vindicated.

The biggest problem is people in other provinces not seeing first hand the good job the DA is doing and only hear the propaganda.

Areas closer to the Western Cape are already starting to swing. For example Nelson Mandela Bay municipality was a very narrow win for the ANC. The more the ANC lose the more vocal and aggressive they will become. Which is sad. This is a democracy. Take your losses with grace and focus on delivering to keep your market share. Not violence, intimidation and fear!

As the noose tightens and their clutch on power weakens, the more they will resort to desperate and intimidating tactics.They are by far the largest threat to the economic, political and social advancement of this country and most are willingly blind to this reality.

The writing is boldly displayed on the wall and in any normal society such facts should be welcomed, however the consequences here in SA send shivers down my spine!
