Full report on Democratic Alliance

Mike Hampton Posted on by

The Democratic Alliance may be in crisis but the Public has short memory. And pragmatists may vote for them simply because South Africa needs an opposition party. For all the DA’s chronic and repeated flaws and lies, the awkward fact is that the ANC has more power and is thus responsible for more wrongdoing. The DA will likely decline but how hard or soft will that landing be? DA specific, the most important point is that Helen Zille is in control. Her return (although I don’t believe she was ever … Read the full article…

Manufactured Maimane voted ANC & COPE

Mike Hampton Posted on by

“Mmusi Maimane voted ANC in 1999 and 2004 and was quite happy with Mbeki, despite the fact that the latter’s Aids denialism cost the lives of some 365,000 black people. In 2009 he voted for COPE. So it wasn’t until 2014 that he voted DA nationally. Three weeks later he became the party’s parliamentary leader, a quite absurd promotion. He was an incongruous leader, vocally rejecting the theory of evolution and thus the whole Enlightenment tradition, arguing for demographic representivity and for making race central to the DA’s notion of … Read the full article…

Maimane quits, DA’s future uncertain

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Yesterday’s expectation was that Mmusi Maimane would quit as Leader of the Democratic Alliance (DA). That became official in a media briefing at 5.36pm today. Maimane’s convinced that the DA isn’t following it’s slogan of being one nation for all; embracing diversity that would emancipate black South Africans. He said that his difference in direction had resulted in him coming under attack from his own party members. “Despite my best efforts, the DA is not the best vehicle to build one vision for South Africa… I will step down as … Read the full article…

Dear Helen Zille, are you evil?

Mike Hampton Posted on by

REPORTING CORRUPION IN YOUR MOMENT OF OPPORTUNITY Helen Zille and Mmusi Maimane, are you evil? Considering your cover-up and negative inaction regarding the Democratic Alliance (DA) corruption I’ve reported to you, it’s fair question. I worry that if kicking a baby meant protecting the crimes of the DA, I’d feel damn sorry for the baby. That baby is the Public you earn protection money from. You got the money, you got rich, where’s our protection? Before I repeat that corruption, let me elaborate on why your current position is your … Read the full article…

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.

When I was approached by the DA to stand as the Johannesburg mayoral candidate, … Read the full article…

DA leadership, an orchestrated battle?

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Who will become the Federal Council Chair of the Democratic Alliance (DA)? Is there battle for control of the party and its ideology or is it a carefully planned orchestration meant to fool the Public? Is ex-DA Leader’s Helen Zille’s hat in the ring a halo or disguise? Many of my previous posts would argue that the devil cannot don a ring of light unless it’s for a dress-up party. Politics is a fickle beast of secrecy and back-stabs. It may take a long time for the truth to surface… … Read the full article…

South Africa: Politicians’ Popularity Poll 2019

Mike Hampton Posted on by

President Cyril Ramaphosa has defied his growing critics to retain his popularity. Confidence in his scandal-to-scandal Government has plummeted yet, man alone, he has triumphed. POLITICIANS POPULARITY POLL RESULTS According to the long-running company Citizens Survey, through their July 2019 poll, Ramaphosa has remained popular despite his biggest allies taking blows. Minister of Finance Tito Mboweni dropped 6% since last year. Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan dropped 5%. Possibly balancing those negativities is that Ramaphosa’s internal enemy, ANC Secretary General Ace Magashule, dropped from 16 to 11%. Magashule is the … Read the full article…

South Africa screamed: “What big cocks you have!”

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Give me a leader who doesn’t speak snakes through a metre of Goebbels lipstick. Give me a leader with morals to match promises. Give me a leader who’s bigger than this mess and I will fight with them for a better South Africa. Until then, South Africa will continue screaming at the Wolves, “What BIG COCKS you have!” SOUTH AFRICA, A COUNTRY THAT DOESN’T CARE ABOUT ITS CITIZENS WHO, IN TURN, DO WHAT THOSE WHO HATE THEM TELL THEM TO DO South Africa dug into the pavement but her determination … Read the full article…
