Cde. I don't believe the discussion was about answers but more about engaging 
views. You have yours I have mine. Again you display despot characteristics by  
giving ultimatums on matters of opinion. Either I say u are right or I go to 
Zille? Cde are u serious? You have moved from the subject to attacking the 
author. Let's keep to the discussion.

 COSATU GENERAL SECRETARY ON LOCAL GOVERNMENT ELECTIONS:

You have your tail between your legs!

If you are a child, then be taught.

If you want to defy, then defy.

Otherwise, admit that you have no answers, and no character.

Submit, or go to Auntie Zille.
