DA is no force to be reckoned with

-

The ANC and its affiliates are ecstatic now that their enemy number one, Helen Zille, has been removed by the DA, a party that has quite unceremoni­ously shot itself in the foot.

The demise of Zille has opened the gates for an ANC victory in 2019. The DA, in subjugatin­g itself to the clamour of the ANC, EFF and others, has shown it is not a force to be reckoned with and cannot stand up to other parties.

The DA has fairly intelligen­t people at the helm, but they badly miscalcula­ted the Zille debacle. The majority of illiterate people of SA have no idea where Singapore is, what it stands for, or even its political history (nor for that matter, have some politician­s and wannabes). Nor have they any real knowledge of SA history. They also have no idea where the facilities, amenities and social infrastruc­tures that everyone enjoys today originated from.

Who is next in the DA firing line? John Steenhuise­n, pictured, David Maynier, James Selfe, Mike Waters? Perhaps they should “smile pretty and watch their backs” and their ps and qs. An important guide could be: don’t fear the enemy that attacks you, but the fake friend that hugs you. John, Germiston
