Deputy Chairperson, I give notice that on the next sitting day of the Council, I shall move:
That the Council -
1) notes the public admission by Cope general secretary, Charlotte Lobe, that the people of South Africa have lost interest in the flagging party as it battles leadership crises, internal spats, factionalism and anarchy;
2) further notes that the party's current audited membership is a far cry form the nearly 500 000 which Ms Lobe claimed last year; and 3) acknowledges that the inflated membership figures were nothing but a ploy to exaggerate the support of the flagging party prior to the 2009 national and provincial elections.
