I'm afraid I'm not going to protest against the recommendation of the
EFF.
I am not part of a mob and I excepted the EFF's leadership when I
decided to protest, so I will not abandon it when it says to stand down
for a time. We are more powerful under a united front. The EFF has
done a great job so far with this sort of thing and I am not going to
weaken their position.
I will take up the cause again at their leave.
