YCL dismisses DA/COPE's stance on labour broking with contempt

Gugu Ndima says the opposition parties are trying to undermine majority call for banning

The YCLSA calls upon the newly weds "COPE&DA" to accept the fate of Labour brokers

The Young communist league of South Africa (UFasimba) has observed with contempt the tendencies, the reactionary marriage between COPE and DA on the issue of Labour brokers (see here). Since the matter of Labour brokers has been brought to the public platform for debate, they have attempted in all possible ways to undermine the call of the majority to ban them.

The Young communist league urges them to refrain from utilising nonsensical tactics in order to ensure that the public deviates from the crux of the matter. The process has been respected by all stakeholders and no one can undermine the tensions that have been created as a result of the existence of this perverse practise that seeks to undermine decent employment.

The DA and COPE brigade further wanted to make a simplistic anaylysis of how Labour brokers can regulate themselves. This will just affirm Labour brokers in society and would be a continuation of what they are currently doing, which is in actual fact self-regulation.

The DA and COPE must just accept the fate of the whole practise and respect the views of the majority which are the poor and the working class in this instance. We reiterate our call that Labour brokers must be BANNED!

Statement issued by Gugu Ndima, YCL national spokesperson, October 9 2009
