Hon members, before we close, for the benefit of all the hon members here I would like to read the motion without notice that was moved earlier by the hon Mncube, over which there was a question mark. I hope everybody is going to listen properly now - listening is a very good skill! I quote:
That the Council -
(1) notes with utter dismay that in a desperate attempt to salvage her flagging and sinking political career, the leader of the soon-to-be politically extinct ID has joined the DA and been sworn in as the MEC for social development;
(2) further notes that in an attempt to appease Patricia de Lille for handing over the ID to the DA on a broken platter, the leader of the DA and Premier of the Western Cape province, Helen Zille, discarded Lennit Max, who was the MEC for community safety in the Western Cape; and
(3) takes this opportunity to call on the betrayed people of the Western Cape, particularly the communities that voted for the ID and the majority of the leaders who are opposed to this unholy alliance to realise that only the ANC, which has fought for their liberation for almost 100 years, understands their needs and conditions, while the DA continues with its elitist ...
I'll repeat that, "elitist" -
... agenda, which has resulted in the neglect of their communities in favour of white affluent areas.
I therefore say, as I have said before, that I expect a written apology from hon Watson for wrongfully misleading the people in this House. He blamed hon Mncube for having uttered a very derogatory word, one that doesn't exist here. The House is adjourned.
