Thank you, Speaker. There is nothing democratic or constitutional about the violence and coercion that accompanies this tripartite alliance-fuelled protests. The person who styles himself or herself as a leader, but then goes into a school and prevents a matric learner from writing an exam, is nothing but a criminal and a thug.
Whenever we have debates in this House about the youth, everybody, including the ANC, professes great concern for the youth. But where is the state now to protect the youth from these criminals and thugs who are stealing their education? Thank you.
