Baffling pro-ANC excuses

Peter Bruce’s excuses for voting ANC are simply incomprehensible. After 25 years of ANC misrule, he believes the ANC can change its spots.

He commits to voting ANC provincially because the DA colludes with the EFF. The DA in the Western Cape doesn’t have to collude with anyone because they received enough votes. It would be the same in Gauteng if they received enough votes. Bruce states Cyril Ramaphosa has “consistently shown courage and rectitude” and then goes on to concede Ramaphosa is “weak”.

He concedes that a less than 58% ANC majority puts Ramaphosa at risk, acknowledging the Mabuza/Magashule faction plans to oust him.

Land reform was so corrupted by the ANC that to appease the alliance, expropriation without compensation was introduced.

Some changes in personnel by Ramaphosa have impressed him, but still there has been zero accountability for any senior ANC member the Guptas, Bosasa, Ace Magashule, Eskom, the National Prosecuting Authority, the police, Gangster State, The President’s Keepers, the Public Investment Corporation and the SABC.

To quote Bruce’s hero as per Mario OrianiAmbrosini’s memoirs: “Our strategy to deal with whites would be like boiling a frog”. Mr Bruce, you are the turkey voting for Christmas.
