The Pan Africanist Congress (PAC, remember them?) tore a strip off EFF commander-in-chief Julius Malema last week for daring to take a poke at their beloved Robert Mugabe, still Zimbabwe’s president.

Malema "is the boy of the Queen", it said, and he had "purged Botswana’s President Ian Seretse Khama", whatever that may mean. Few who have ever heard Malema speak would accuse him of being a "bloody agent" for the West, but the PAC isn’t fooled by the rhetoric.
