Paddy Harper: Sick notes will fly but not cabinet resignations when Ramaphosa returns from Bali - A lit — but awkward — first cabinet meeting awaits for the president’s uncomradely critics
top leadership spent their respective Mondays may be a fair indication of how things actually panned out, despite what the RET bots — human, virtual and otherwise — had to say over the weekend.
According to the RETs, Ramaphosa was never going to survive the NEC and was getting the heave from the comrades over the integrity commission’s draft report on the theft of several mission dollars at his game farm. Thuma Mina was done for and would, they said, be Ubering home from Nasrec on Sunday after breakfast and bye-bye, with a donkey cart on standby in case he didn’t have data.
Comrade Carl would, they prophesied, be defence minister by Sunday evening and not a clown in camouflage, standing outside the Sasol garage, statuesque in stupidity, while the leadership drove by. Out there in Manyiland, Ramaphosa was a beaten man; tag-teamed into submission by presidential hopefuls
