Dispatch British monarch to dustbin of history: EFF
against humanity” belong.
This was the fiery statement issued by the EFF yesterday over its refusal to be part of Parliament’s delegation to the 62nd Commonwealth Parliamentary Conference in London later this month, which brings together at least 50 states, many former African colonies.
The African continent and all other British colonies must reject Commonwealth, “a guard of white colonial and racist interests”, says the party.
The British monarchy needs to take “full responsibility for its crimes of genocide, colonisation and anti-black racism” with Queen Elizabeth II at the helm of “an evil monarchy”. The EFF rejected her as “our former coloniser”.
Yet she has the “audacity” to deliver a keynote address at the conference.
“The Commonwealth suspended Zimbabwe from par- ticipating because they took back their land from the white colonialists. We have no illusions about the past and don’t suffer (an) inferiority complex by always seeking recognition.
“The British monarchy should be ashamed of itself, or even of still existing taken the crimes against humanity it has caused.” – Sheree Bega
