Middle finger to taxpayers

With thugs regrouping, politics our has reached a new low. Like the ANC, Jacob Zuma's political formation, uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) party, has shown a middle finger to the taxpayers by appointing a group of questionable individuals as members of the legislature.

Less than a month after ap-| pearing in court for corruption charges, Zizi Kodwa was sworn in as a parliamentarian. Many other ANC leaders were fingered by the Commission of Inquiry into State Capture chaired by Chief Justice Raymond Zondo, but nothing happened to them.

Like during the Zuma era, the country is presently led by a person who has been accused of a crime which is dubbed or known to many as "Phala Phala", this will haunt him even after his presidency.

The MK has arrogantly gone on to look for all the thugs who have been previously accused of having dragged this country into where it is. These characters who are regrouping will be paid by us to somehow draft laws and hold the Cabinet accountable... when they were not accountable themselves.

Brian Molefe, Siyabonga Gama, Lucky Montana and Tom Moyane are some of the individuals that the MK party is reportedly planning to send to the National Council of Provinces; it is no joke. These are individuals who have no regard for the rule of law and they have shown that when they had power in the state institutions, which they abused for their self-enrichment.
