Ideology, idiocracy, politicians, you and me

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Today, I blame Syria for making me vomit ideology, media, politicians and the common human. All the wrongdoings of Syria’s leader Bashar al-Assad don’t make him part of this metaphor. Instead, that’s reserved for Russia and the USA… from my South African view. Note that my mind is constantly at war with ideas. When some battles last too long, distracting me from what I should be doing most, I diarise them. They’re my unedited moment, forgotten or later disinterred for reflection. This blog is one of those moments. HYPOCRITICAL MISSILES … Read the full article…

JHB Mayor Herman Mashaba quits DA

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Herman Mashaba, the Mayor of Johannesburg, is quitting the Democratic Alliance. That will automatically remove him as mayor. Mashaba said that he’s choosing country over party. This is his resignation letter, requesting that 27 November 2019 be his final day. The headers and images within were not provided. HERMAN MASHABA’S RESIGNATION LETTER I joined the Democratic Alliance, because I could no longer stand back and watch my country being destroyed by ANC corruption, failure and arrogance. When I was approached by the DA to stand as the Johannesburg mayoral candidate, … Read the full article…

South Africa: 2019 National Election Results

Mike Hampton Posted on by

South Africa’s fifth national elections since apartheid were held on 8 May 2019. The ANC won and the DA remained the official opposition party. Unchanged in words and position but not not in status quo. The Public expressed their dissatisfaction with their scandals by voting less than before. Others increased the share of the EFF, IFP, VF+ and ACDP. The UDM, AIC, COPE and NFP declined but each clung to two Parliamentary seats. New kids in the arena, GOOD and ATM, picked two seats too. The PAC and Al Jama-ah … Read the full article…

Election 2019 results: The DA nightmare

Mike Hampton Posted on by

The Democratic Alliance (DA) is the best… at spinning negative news into something positive… but I’m not letting them get away with it. DA NIGHTMARE This is the DA’s first drop in 25 years. They’ll be licking their national wounds and contemplating the 4% dip in their stronghold, the Western Cape. Nationally, the DA received less votes than in 2014, transferring a bunch of them to the Vryheidsfront Plus (VF+) that decided that ignoring equality wasn’t worth an attempt at more votes. And the DA’s Cape Town sins made some … Read the full article…

South African Elections 2019: National & Western Cape prediction

Mike Hampton Posted on by

This is my 2019 South African election prediction. WESTERN CAPE Racial identity and scandal makes the Western Cape the trickiest province in South Africa. Whereas people have never been this mad with the DA, ensuring a few seat changes, I think many will fall back in line, mostly white cattle to the slaughter. The DA will drop but not enough for my liking (if you’ve downloaded my book for free, you’ll understand why – https://wp.me/p9Of25-1mn). I’m confident VF+, ACDP and EFF will do better but the allocation of seats at … Read the full article…

Voter Frustration: SA, our country without a plan… again!

Mike Hampton Posted on by

“I constantly make the observation that no-one has a plan. EFF Well the EFF has a plan, to take all the land, all the houses, all the businesses and make it all owned by them to be leased back to you at a nice nest feathering price. DA The DA has plan, they want to run the country as a developers delight where the land is there to be utilized (read their environmental policies), and then they can charge and charge to their little heart’s delight because imagine all the … Read the full article…

Will the DA go into coalition with EFF again?

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Will the Democratic Alliance go into coalition with the EFF again? SOLLY STUMBLES 702 host Eusebius McKaiser may be a hypocritical dick but he’s intelligent and his show’s worth listening to because we get to hear what his guests say or, especially, don’t say. Recently, he interviewed the DA’s Solly Msimanga. Solly was repeatedly (and repeatedly) asked if the DA would go into coalition with the EFF this coming election result. Solly refused to answer. His evasion was so ridiculous THAT YOU NEED TO HEAR IT. Don’t vote for a … Read the full article…

Prophecy: DA & EFF

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Don’t burn me. I’m not a witch. I just pointed out the obvious about the EFF and DA two years ago. It’s a jungle of lies, greed and betrayal glued with hypocrisy. The DA sacrificed its liberalism to become lamb for the EFF lion king. The EFF got everything the ANC denied them. It’s obvious that Ramaphosa’s learned from Zuma’s mistake and that there’s a new hunt afoot. But here’s what I wrote two years ago. THE EFF IS KING OF THE JUNGLE The Economic Freedom Fighters will either end … Read the full article…
