POLITICAL intimidation, wherever it rears its ugly head, must not be tolerated

The recent attack on DA supporters and Western Cape premier Helen Zille in Tshwane is not surprising. History has shown that in Africa those who claim to be liberation movements remain in power through political intimidation, brutality and undermining the rule of law. ANC supporters must stop their barbaric actions.

Come the 2011 local government elections the DA will prove to the ANC that they are ready to govern within the ambit of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, as is currently happening in Western Cape. I doubt if the ANC will accept this defeat.
