In yet another example of South Africa’s pitiful slide into Third World chaos, a recent Cape Town city council meeting meant to discuss that metropolis’s annual budget dissolved into chaos as African National Congress (ANC) councillors trashed the chamber while dancing, singing, and waving mock AK47s.
The
ANC “protest” as they called it, was held in the council chamber of the
only city of the country not controlled by South Africa’s ruling party.
In expressing their objection to the new
budget—which dares to asks “consumers” to start actually paying for
services such as electricity and other utilities (instead of making
the—largely white—taxpayers of the city continue to pay for everything),
the ANC councillors chanted slogans, banged on desks, dumped documents
on the floor of the city council chamber, and then began dancing the
“toyi-toyi” dance.
