BLF slammed for 'missing opportunity' to apologise for Hoërskool Driehoek racism | IOL News

Durban - Trade union Solidarity said on Monday that political party Black First Land First had missed a "golden opportunity" to apologise for racist remarks it made about the death of four pupils during the collapse of a concrete walkway at Hoërskool Driehoek earlier this year.

Anton van der Bijl, who heads Solidarity's labour law services, said in the statement that the union had received opposing papers from BLF president, Andile Mngxitama. He told the Citizen: “If our God has finally intervened and our ancestors have petitioned and seen that these white land thieves have now died then I definitely celebrate it. I celebrate the death of our enemies, their children, their cats and their dogs. That is our position.”

"Mngxitama also states in the affidavit that Maasdorp’s remark should be seen in the light of the pain black persons experience on a daily basis as a result of the privilege every white person received because of colonialism," said Van der Bijl. “The fact that he said that, confirms just how extremely racist his comments are and that his statements must be condemned with the full force of the law,” Van der Bijl said.

BLF should change name to RFP - RACIST F......G PARTY

I'm no BLF supporter but la mabhulu should relax, they're becoming too obsessed about BLF.

OPINIONISTA: VF+ not likely to succeed in challenging registration of BLFLast week South Africa’s Electoral Commission (also colloquially referred to as the IEC) announced that it will not prohibit the fringe group, Black First Land First (BLF), from contesting the upcoming election, despite the fact that its constitution makes clear that only “black” people are allowed to join the party. The Freedom Front Plus (VF+), a slightly larger fringe group who represents the interests of far-right 'white' voters, is challenging the legality of this decision. Some might say this is a match made in heaven. But what are the chances of the VF+ winning this legal battle?

‘Treasonous’ load shedding is an excuse to sell Eskom to WMC – BLFThe party wants two controversial former top Eskom executives - Brian Molefe and Matshela Koko - to be reinstated. Who cares what they say. They dont have 3 brain cells between them. Who even cares what these useless thugs have to say. How many are there of them anyway ? Maximum 1000 peeps being pAid by zuptas ? I honestly do not understand why you report this drivel. It is not news, it does not concern a significant number of people, and you as professional journos know very well what it is all about. Be better!
