ARCHIVES: Arthur Fraser’s accusations over President Cyril Ramaphosa’s forex theft scandal mark the probable beginning of a period in which our political contestation will reach new heights of dirt and dishonesty, where ever more lies are spewed out daily.

that “only one idea has proven powerful enough to anchor SA identity, at least among those who are poor and black: the idea that one experienced apartheid, or that one’s parents did, and that one is therefore owed redress”.precarious, it makes it a fertile ground for those who lie, who twist facts and spread conspiracy theories.

There is also a strong link between our politics, and ANC conferences in particular, and the number of political lies being told. It is likely that all of this cacophony is going to reach a new intensity in the coming months: there is so much powerful incentive to lie – the leadership of the governing party and probably the Presidency is at stake.

One of the striking features of the Ramaphosa forex theft scandal is that the legal proceedings originated from Arthur Fraser.

Rubbish!!! Now you're telling us that illegally smuggling of US dollars by Ramaphosa into his PhalaPhalaFarm mattresses is a dirty politics, NO, it is a crime Ramaphosa himself committed...you're making us fools!!!

Cyril has in part admitted to some main allegations.. But let's quickly sweep that under the carpet and concentrate on what a shyster Fraser is.. Which he is.. But that doesn't absolve CR..

That must have taken some brainstorming..

Except that Arthur Fraser is not lying. Cyril has disputed any of the material facts. Actually he has acknowledged the truth
