ANC rebukes DA for inappropriate comments
The ANC says the self-destructing DA has once again stooped to a new low by trying to influence and pre-empt a court case even before it started with its latest pathetic media statement on the start of the judicial review tomorrow in the Western Cape High Court.
ANC Western Cape leader Marius Fransman says these tactics of deception and deflection is typical of the right-wing of the DA led by old order National Party outsiders like DA Western Cape leader Dr Ivan Meyer. It has scant regard for the Rule of Law and our courts, while Meyer holds the legislature and its rules (amongst others on how to deal with cases before our courts) in contempt. The ANC rejects the DA's statement in full.
Meyer pre-empts the court case just as his national leader did in an act of political gamesmanship when she also tried to interfere or influence the court on the outcome of the initial interdict and the court severely reprimanded her for that.
Fransman says: "Meyer willingly leads the DA in the Western Cape in its war against poor black people as they target only black (coloured and African) schools. Most of them are Afrikaans schools in rural areas and the rest on the Cape Flats, thus proving the DA only punishes those communities for not voting for them.
