Knysna Coalition: DA Favouring COPE over ACDP?

Hunger Strike Day 26 weight loss Mike Hampton

Knysna has a hung council. The DA’s options are a deal with either COPE, the KUC or the ACDP. Regards coalition talks, the Western Cape ACDP posted this on their Facebook page yesterday: “The ACDP has a king maker option in Knysna, which we are considering. The unexpected deadlock in Knysna is said to have taking the blue wave by surprise, but according to sources in the town, the DA was leaning towards an alliance with Cope, instead of the ACDP. The ACDP’s Grant Haskin said his party did make … Read the full article…

Knysna's Hung Council: Kingmakers & Mistakes?

Mike Hampton Posted on 5th Aug 2016 by mikehampton1st Nov 2020

What went wrong for the DA in Knysna? How did they drop from dictatorship joy to hung Council? Firstly, credit must go where it’s deserved. Donovan Pofadder was the DA’s big surprise. They worked hard to win the new ward but i don’t believe that they could’ve expected it. Pofadder spectacularly clinched the 6th win for his party. With the DA at 6, ANC 3, COPE 1, an independent 1, it seemed as if the DA would take at least 5 of the 10 PR seats that were waiting to … Read the full article…

Knysna 2016 Election Results Update: Aug 4

Mike Hampton Posted on 4th Aug 2016 by mikehampton1st Nov 2020

The DA has won Knysna, taking 6 of the 11 wards. However, they will need to gain 5 PR seats to control the Council outright. COPE may have fallen apart elsewhere in the country but grew in Knysna. Not only have they won Ward 6 but stand a chance at a PR seat too. Elrick van Aswegen, the leader of the party, must be complimented (but he was quick to pass on the credit to his supporters). As big an impact is Velile Waxa, an independent, defeating the ANC in … Read the full article…

ACDP Elections: Schalk’s Version of Paradise

Mike Hampton Posted on 31st Jul 2016 by mikehampton7th Jan 2021

“Knysna will be restored to the upmarket tourist town it used to be.” Those are the exact words of Schalk van der Merwe, the ACDP candidate for Knysna’s Ward 10.  Can Schalk, whose also the owner of Circle Property Developers, be believed?   Paradise is a suburb in Knysna. It’s well-named when you look at the photo of the tree-lined road below.   But what was Schalk van der Merwe thinking when he developed this in the same road? Can his election promise be believed?   PS: Schalk still has … Read the full article…

The Holy Pigs of the African Christian Democratic Party

Mike Hampton Posted on 31st Jul 2016 by mikehampton7th Jan 2021

“Someone needs to go bury some dead pigs on that [mosque] property! ‘Defile’ the land!” Why has the African Christian Democratic Party (ACDP) allowed that ‘holy pig’ comment, in reference to the proposed Knysna mosque, to stand on their candidate Schalk van der Merwe’s Facebook page the past 3 days? Are they asking Knysna to vote for hate? Yesterday, I posted criticism of Schalk van der Merwe. Some thought I was too strong but I declare that it wasn’t harsh enough. His negative attitude reflects the party as its nakedly … Read the full article…

Is the ACDP’s Schalk van der Merwe a Devil?

Mike Hampton Posted on 30th Jul 2016 by mikehampton7th Jan 2021

Hey, you, Schalk van der Merwe, Knysna candidate for the African Christian Democratic Party (ACDP) and owner of Circle Property Developers. Yes, YOU. I could never have started with “Dear Schalk” because you horrify me. I couldn’t use “To Whom It May Concern” because I’ve begun to know what you are. You’re arrogant and hollow, seemingly serving a hidden agenda. How the hell do you read “Christian” in your version of the ACDP? You spit the same nonsense repeatedly on Facebook. You repeatedly refuse to answer questions and substantiate your … Read the full article…

Getting Over Knysna Political Stupidity

Mike Hampton Posted on 30th Jul 2016 by mikehampton1st Nov 2020

Oh bugger, 12hrs of witnessing the sad state of our politics… more exhausting and depressing than it’s entertaining… The image above is dedicated to the political stupidity of the Knysna ACDP (especially Schalk van der Merwe) and the Knysna Ubuntu Party. It’s also dedicated to all blind supporters of any political party. Bias ain’t love for the future! I was desperately hoping that the smaller parties would give the DA a challenge but some are so ensnared in prejudice and disinformation that they need to be regarded as irrelevant (for … Read the full article…

The DA, ACDP, Knysna Knews and Susan Campbell

Mike Hampton Posted on 26th Jul 2016 by mikehampton25th Jan 2021

Why did Knysna Knews delete Susan Campbell’s interesting comment from their FB page? It was about Municipal Manager Grant Easton and Deputy Mayor Esme Edge. Knysna Knews has supported the DA’s Esme Edge more than any other page I know of. Was that why? I can’t think of another reason because Campbell’s comment was well articulated and non-confrontational. Thankfully, I had copied the entire thread in case I needed to quote from it for an article. Hopefully, Advocate Julie Seton (who I proved to be an administrator of that anonymously … Read the full article…
