Stop this EFF upstart now

- RON MIDDLETON Plumstead

I AM WORRIED about South Africa for our children and grandchild­ren. When I think about the terrible oppression and misery brought about by Adolf Hitler and his murderous, bullying, dictatoria­l henchmen, I think of people like Radovan Krejcir and Julius Malema in our country.

The word that comes to mind is “parvenu”, which applies to all three. My advice to everyone: “Stop them before they really get going.”

Krejcir is easy – simply ignore his bombastic outbursts, as he relies on intimidati­ng others. He deserves punishment to the full extent of the law.

Malema may be more difficult to solve. He is always calling other people “boy or girl”, which is a case of the pot calling the kettle black – if I may dare to use the term. Malema is a child of the ANC, a naughty child – who is wilful, argumentat­ive, intolerant, unmannerly, jealous, possessive, ignorant and greedy.

He is always talking about the poor as he sports his Rolex watches, luxury cars and homes, and he doesn’t respect the sovereignt­y of Parliament.

Malema is a dictator who wants to control everybody. He’s not interested in the views or opinions of others unless they agree with his own. Just imagine the chaos if he does become president.
