DA MP gets backlash for moaning about ANC and EFF MPs singing struggle songs

Belinda Bozzoli claimed ‘non literate forms seem to matter more than clever words and well crafted arguments’.

“ANC trying to ‘claim’ Parliament as their own by using a recess to dominate the Chamber through sound. Their persistent and relentlessly deafening singing of struggle songs is really irritating,” she tweeted. “This song belongs to all South Africans – black and white. It speaks to the sacrifices that were made so you can sit as an MP in a democratic South Africa. You should be learning the words, not getting angry,” Msimang continued.The ANC’s Annelize van Wyk responded by saying she had been in SA parliament for 12 years and was “proud of its vibrancy and character”.Other Twitter users called Bozzoli “out of touch”, “insensitive” and “tone deaf”.

Bozzoli’s tweet about the EFF joining in, meanwhile, received criticism in particular for its use of the term “non literate” and her suggestion that EFF and ANC politicians were using song as an alternative to “clever words”.

An amazing conclusion from an obviously woke blogger posing as a journalist who clearly either can't read or didn't bother to read the many comments supporting belbozz.
