In taking note of the behaviour (is it typical?) of eThekwini workers in trashing the streets and the CBD, and of the behaviour of EFF “councillors” in Ekurhuleni, and the spate of political murders, especially in KwaZulu-Natal, and … and … and, I have been wondering whether this is the freedom and democracy that Nelson Mandela fought for?
