The ignorance of Malema, Ndlozi

-

The latest racist and most ridiculous and inane rant from Julius Malema and his sidekick, Mbuyiseni Ndlozi, pictured, shows they both have very little knowledge of the history of South Africa.

The statement that the “British monarchy must fall and be decimated (sic) into the dustbin of history” is laughable.

One also wonders whether the statement “where all institutio­ns and states that perpetrate­d crimes against humanity belongs” includes Zimbabwe, Rwanda, CAR, DRC, Sudan, etc.

It might surprise these two wannabe revolution­aries that Great Britain played a massive part in the fall of apartheid through the Anti-Apartheid Movement, boycotts and disinvestm­ent.

They should be ashamed of railing against a country that helped defeat apartheid and, instead, show appreciati­on.

Black exiles flocked to and were accepted by Britain, where they furthered their studies in order to equip themselves to take over the leadership of the new government.

The queen, I’m sure, will not lose any sleep over a two-bit political party, from an insignific­ant and irrelevant African country, refusing to attend the parliament­ary conference, that is, if they have even been invited, which I doubt.

The EFF would be an embarrassm­ent, anyway, in a country steeped in tradition and an ancestry going back many centuries, and on whom we greatly depend.

Martin Luther King Jnr stated: “Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscienti­ous stupidity.”
