  1. All of them have 20 something Pages Manifesto (Plans) only the EFF have more than 250 pages well articulated Manifesto talk about being lazy, lazy to plan lead to lazy to lead or may be no plans at all

  2. EFF is talking through its ass to think some of these policies they are dreaming of will even take off. Politics requires common sense and from that stage of speakers it is clear where it resides. Most of these parties tell you what you want to hear so you applause and give them your vote

  3. The disappointing thing with these debates is hosts/facilitators that do not call into order panelists when they do not answer the question being asked – on the coalitions being dysfunctional, the only party that answered the is EFF (Floyd) – the rest that made weak political statements instead of answering the damn question

  4. Please, Black South Africans, you are the majority of the population. This is Africa. Please vote for the EFF so that the land can be returned. Do not vote for the DA it a white supremacist party trying to bring back apartheid just look how black people are treated in the Western Cape.

  5. That clown from the SRC proves that the EFF indoctrinates these young people. Clearly they lack integrity cause they believe being thuggish and revolutionary produces quality. I do not like the ANC at all but these Economic Fools are like voting the Taliban to run a country

  6. The people who think Floyd Shivambu is some kind of genius don't know the first thing about coal power.

    Coal power is expensive whether or not you have the best coal money can buy. Coal power plants rely on constant expensive maintenance and massive capital investment. This is generally what happens when you have high temperatures, high pressures and moving parts.

    Renewable energy is cheaper than coal and can be scaled up fairly easily. The cost of renewables are also constantly going down and grid energy storage solutions are maturing fast.

    Sure you can try cleaner coal technology but then your plants will be much more expensive and the additional components will require even more maintenance and capital investment.

    We can achieve a just energy transition with renewables. Solar panels are getting very cheap and sunshine is free.

    Floyd just doesn't want that because you can't steal the sunshine and you can't steal the money for solar as easily as you can for massive coal power plants that need constant money input to keep operating.
