The debate is out on whether the ANC will be able to match the EFF’s youthful impetuosity in parliament.
There is no guarantee they will contribute to robust debates, or that their inputs will be any different to the gobbledygook we were bombarded with over the past 25 years. But their high-pitched volume and childish behaviour inside the House turned off many. The manhandling of a journalist by Floyd Shivambu and the assault of a white police officer, allegedly by EFF MPs, were acts of uncivilised people that must never be repeated. But the EFF managed to keep the governing party on its toes and woke the opposition parties from their slumber to do their job and hold the executive to account.
Or will they flounder and prove to be only a pack of poodles barking at Malema and company?
