ANC appeals to Samwu to reconsider strike plans (M&G)
The African National Congress (ANC) on Thursday appealed to the SA Municipal Workers’ Union (Samwu) to reconsider plans for a second strike in May, which it says will have negative effects on the forthcoming local government elections.  The wage disparity claims of Pikitup employees, whose two-week long strike was suspended last Thursday, have still to be addressed and Samwu has warned of the possibility of a second strike if they are not resolved.  Moreover, Cosatu has warned about a secondary strike by Samwu members in the region and throughout Gauteng.

AfriForum gaan volstoom voort met sy haatspraak-hofsaak teen Julius Malema en sal nie afsien van die standpunt dat Malema se gebruik van die “Skiet die Boer”-slagspreuk haatspraak is nie.  Die ANC en Malema se skielike oproep tot dialoog is ’n skynheilige poging om hulleself as billik en versoenend aan die hof voor te hou.  AfriForum Jeug se pogings om met Malema hieroor te praat is met arrogansie en dreigemente begroet.  Verder het die ANC op geen stadium in die verlede aangedui dat hulle met AfriForum hieroor in gesprek wil tree nie.  In hierdie omstandighede is AfriForum van mening dat die Gelykheidshof die beste forum is om uitspraak in hierdie aangeleentheid te gee.

Die burgerregte-inisiatief AfriForum is vol vertroue dat hulle ‘n baie sterk saak in die Suid-Gautengse hooggeregshof (sittend as die gelykheidshof) teen Julius Malema gestel het, veral in die lig van die erkennings wat Malema tydens sy kruisondervraging die afgelope twee dae gemaak het.
