So, you are a "Vanguard" who does not like the vanguard?

I think you are young in this struggle, and the young do tend to be
spontaneously workerist, comrade.

Let us hope you continue to study until you see why, for example, Lenin in
"What is to be Done?" chose the path of the professional revolutionaries
over the path of workerism.

>>
>> Swaziland trade unions and opposition parties have long accused Mswati of

>> Announcing the loan in Pretoria yesterday, Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan

>> Gordhan expressed confidence that the loan would be used for economic and

>>
>> Frustration with Mswati's refusal to yield to popular demands for
>> democratic reform reached boiling point in April when trade unions,
>> pro-democracy activists and opposition parties took to the streets in
>> protest against the king's autocratic rule.
>>
>> Mzamo Sikhondze, treasurer-general of Swaziland's banned People's United
>> Democratic Movement, accused South Africa of again "baby-sitting a
>> dictator".
>>
>> South African trade unions and political parties said the loan should be
>> granted strictly on the basis that Mswati would unban all political parties

>>
>> Lucky Lukhele, of the Swaziland Solidarity Network, criticised President
>> Jacob Zuma for agreeing to the loan.
>>
>> "Zuma has decided to behave like a sugar-daddy of the king. South Africa
>> has many service-delivery issues and he must tell us what informed his

>>
>> The ANC Youth League said it was "totally opposed" to the loan.
>>
>> It said the ANC government could not give the Swaziland government a loan
>> because the ruling party's national general council in September expressed
>> concern about the lack of transformation, and of democracy and human rights,
>> in Swaziland.
>>
>> The DA's spokesman on international relations, Stevens Mokgalapa, said:
>> "We should use our economic power to influence democratic reforms. [The
