Subject: Re: [YCLSA Discussion] ANC Statement: May Day

What is your complaint, Cde Castro?

Is it that Clemens Kadalie's name is spelled wrongly? That would be a
trivial complaint.

Is it that the late Clemens Kadalie, who founded the ICU, was born in
Malawi? That would be a scandalous complaint, if it came from you.

Is it that Kadalie kicked out the communists from the ICU? Perhaps he
thought they were not "real" enough, Cde Castro?

Is it that the ANC forgot to mention SACTU on this occasion, although SACTU
signed the Freedom Charter on behalf of the working class? Well, we do not
expect a full, exhaustive recital in a media release. Media releases are
better when they are shorter, Cde Castro.


You complain of lack of content, but you add no content to the discussion
on this occasion.
