MK denying its voters their voice in parliament

Something that should be of greater concern bubbled to the surface and got as much attention as debris washed ashore by a stream of water.

- 

The stream in this instance, was the news around the sacking of former EFF second-in-command Floyd Shivambu from the hot seat of the MK Party’s secretary-general.

Shivambu is now headed to the back-benches of the august House of Assembly as it pleases party overlord Jacob Zuma. It could lead to obscurity and a political wilderness. Only time will tell.

The MKP has, over its short lifespan, proved not to be a pillar of exemplary democracy at work. Sadly, it appears to be least concerned about what we are about to raise here.
