Despite the repeated claim that March 20 would bring the country to its knees, Malema’s initiative turned out to be nothing more than a poorly supported, generally dismissed, costly damp squib, and confirmed that he and his EFF are delusional, all bluff and bluster, incapable of bringing any form of constructive solution to our country’s problems.
It is to be hoped that the real political consequence of the events of March 20 lies in the rejection by any political entity, especially the ANC, of the notion of entering any sort of alliance with the EFF at any level of government. It should be condemned to the political wilderness to shrivel up and die.
