The DA says it will table a motion in parliament calling for an early election after the findings on President Cyril Ramaphosa by the section 89 legal expert panel on Wednesday.

“That option is for a simple majority of 50% plus one of the National Assembly to vote for the dissolution of government, which would then trigger an early election,” said DA leader John Steenhuisen on Thursday.

Briefing the media, Steenhuisen said he will table a motion in the National Assembly in which he “will call on all members of the house, regardless of party or affiliation, to support it so that we can urgently close this chapter”. “Impeachment proceedings into his conduct must go ahead, and he will have to offer far better, more comprehensive explanations than we have been given so far.”

The country cannot “leave it up to 4,000 bribed and compromised delegates at an ANC conference to choose the future of our country. That choice has to be made by all the people of South Africa in an early election,” Steenhuisen said.

I am sorry to admit that he is white but he is the best we have for now and the forseeable future. We might have a chance if three of the ANC top six were white, but please no Carls'.
