Political parties to debate Zille's 'colonialism' tweets
28 March 2017
Cape Town – Political parties will try and show the “true legacy” of colonialism when the Western Cape provincial legislature debate Helen Zille’s recent tweets on Tuesday.
Western Cape Premier Zille came under fire recently when she tweeted that colonialism was not all bad.
“Getting on to an aeroplane now and won’t get on to the wi-fi so that I can cut off those who think every aspect of colonial legacy was bad,” she tweeted, before later apologising.
Now, political parties will on Tuesday have a snap debate in the provincial legislature on Zille’s series of tweets, after a request from the ANC was approved on the matter.
