Hon Speaker, arising from the hon President's reply, most of us in this House acknowledge that Mr Malema is a Polokwane political Frankenstein created by yourself in order to achieve your objective to become a President. Now, like all Frankensteins, he is uncontrollable and he is perceived to be a threat to the security of the country to the point that your Minister of Defence and Military Veterans, who has now unconstitutionally put the army on high alert, feels jittery.
Does this mean that, in the eyes of government, Mr Malema's activities can be equated to planning a coup d'tat? Again, Mr President, can you explain why you and your government blame Lonmin mine for not providing housing for miners, while lack of housing and basic services is a serious problem all over South Africa as a result of the ANC's failure to deliver? [Applause.]
