The ANC is staging it’s fifth national general council. The purpose of the gathering is to review the party’s performance over the period since the last elective conference. The most noticeable aspect of this latest conference, like most of the provincial conferences, is the apparent lack of any race group other than black.
The National Party (NP) was much derided for being a whites-only party whose only political objective was white domination and job reservation for whites. Are these not the exact aims of the ANC? The actions and policies of the ANC over the past 30 years are nothing but the same as the NP government, but in reverse, where all jobs in government, including provincial and local government, state-owned enterprises, hospitals and schools are reserved in the main for black people.
Through cadre deployment, the ANC has declared publicly that it is nothing but a black nationalist party with the same objectives as the old NP. South Africans of all colours need to be worried about their and their children’s future. The only way to ensure that this country has an economic future is to make sure that government at all levels is manned by the most capable people in the country, regardless of their race.

The ANC has made a mockery of the government. Our economy has ground along at just over one percent for most of the past 10 years. This when the country still has one of the biggest stockpiles of minerals in the world.
Instead, we have closed over 20 smelters because electricity prices have risen by about 800% over the past decade due to incompetence. One would have thought that economic issues would dominate the discussions at the national general council gathering, but no, discussion is centred around eliminating corruption. This is merely electioneering, hoping to convince voters that the ANC has changed for the good. What nonsense, the ANC couldn’t survive without corruption, BBEEE and fraudulent tenders.
