Maybe Pemmy Majodina prefers burning tyres to burning words. Government tells gatvol citizens that anger is no licence to vandalise. Yet, when insulted, our minister reaches for a verbal petrol bomb. Hau, Minister!
If protesters torch a clinic, must you burn the one next door in retaliation? Mandela and Tambo must be doing somersaults in their graves.

You cannot wrestle voters in the gutter, emerge covered in mud, and then expect jou ma se vote.
