SACP condemns EFF's rascal shenanigans 

Thursday, 21 August 2014

The South African Communist Party condemns in the strongest terms possible the rascal shenanigans displayed by the EFF in Parliament today. The EFF's rowdy hooliganism indicates that they have no interest in advancing the democratic process in South Africa, and that they are not prepared to abide by Parliamentary procedures and the rule of law. The EFF must not abuse and misuse the many freedoms that were so gallantly fought for by our people including the right to participate in Parliament. They have disgraced Parliament, they have disgraced South Africa, and they have disgraced themselves.

EFF's anarchic and childish disorder must be rejected by all in society in the interest of a democratic and prosperous South Africa. The SACP calls on the relevant State Authorities to look deeper into this pattern, which is characterised by disruptive and disrespectful mischief clearly reflecting an intention to destabilise the country. The controllers behind this rascal behaviour must be exposed. We call on all members of society to unite, isolate and defeat these unruly elements.
