A reshuffle of the political party pack ahead?

[Justloadit]

Ok Just heard doc Ramphele has pulled out of the DA deal. Shes got no balls. The AGANG party has no money and is being funded from with in. With this new knowledge, it seems that Mantashe predicted a stillborn party. Had she remained with the DA she would have secure her ticket into parliament.

A bit sad, really.

Effen politicians!! they're all the same.

Maybe the cANCer, COPE or the EFF offered her a better deal.

Just keep voting for the 'Official Opposition' who ever they are.

Maybe we should start a non political 'OFFOPP' party just to be the ones to keep the others in line.

A wise move from Ramphele for leaving DA early. My opinion is that she can be more productive if she can serve government as a minister in Economic Development for instance given here economic drives, education and experience

[Justloadit]

and how is she going to be elected into that position, surely you are not expecting the ANC to offer it to her.

Ramphele just gained her publicity by the time she was about to leave ANC and the eyes were on her and hence the pressure to leave ANC from whatever it came from but I think it was DA, by that time her foot-steps were felt both by the public and politicians and hence she was on the verge of the ladder into the parliament and if she did stay in the ANC; it was more likely for her to be nominated as a Minister or MEC otherwise in the next coming elections.

My point is that she has to take a decision of her own and start by looking back and see if possible, where did she went wrong and help herself get back on track.

This cartoon says it all!

I don't think she was an ANC plant.

She claims that she was not a supporter of any particular party but methinks she was a closet PAC supporter because that is originally the party that supported "Biko'
