Play for time

THE national executive committee of the ANC concluded this year's business with their last meeting on Monday.

If you still had doubts about the kingmaker role of the ANCYL inside the ruling party after this gathering, your train has already left the station.

In a postmortem of their September national general council, the ANC is already looking at 2012, the year of their centenary.

The shape and form of the party was decided in Durban.

That the party will commission research on nationalisation is mere filibustering. The youth league rules the roost.

The Higher Force willing, we can only pray that Mineral Resources Minister Susan Shabangu lives long enough to see the vexatious phenomenon become policy of the ANC.

We wish for maturity from the ANCYL as they go about bragging: "We told you so."
