DA rejects kangaroo council sitting in Johannesburg today and the inept Speaker’s rulings
30 September 2022
If it wasn’t so serious, it would be laughable.
The Johannesburg City Council meeting earlier today had all the hallmarks of a tragi-comedy as the Speaker, on debut, ignored procedural protocol in her quest to push through the motion of no confidence in Mayor Mpho Palatse as quickly as possible and at whatever the cost.
This was done because a court action brought by the DA to stop this sham meeting was being heard at the same time.
Unfortunately, the Speaker’s tactic worked and the motion was carried before the court action could be concluded.
