Dear Mrs Helen Zille
You see, Madam Zille, you and a large section of the media have appointed the DA custodian of the country's political moral compass. A day doesn't pass by without you making statement s that paint everybody and everything associated with ANC as corrupt and incompetent. And everything you say is always accepted by the gullible media, and print media in particular, as gospel truth.
But a deeper look reveals that you have been weaving a web of deceit. It is unfortunate that while the media has willingly got into bed with the DA, most ordinary people have been blind-folded into a politically orgy full of lies and double standards.
I know you'll rush to dismiss this and even unleash the very same media to hunt me down, but I am okay with that. I am used to it. Anyway, let us see what is happening in Bitou.
To many people, anything written in newspapers is gospel truth. So, it was not surprising when in 2007 some people from Kwanokuthula protested against what was termed "ANC corruption" at the municipality. They had read this lie in the newspapers. And the newspapers had one source, the DA's Johan Brummer.
We questioned lack of professionalism by the journalist involved and we were accused of trying to muzzle the media. As Brummer was unable to submit any proof to the police for investigation whilst he was always in the newspapers alleging ‘proof' of corruption and making other related reckless statements, the Council instituted disciplinary action against him. He was found not fit to be a councillor by a respected senior advocate and the ANC-led Council asked your MEC for Local Government to remove him as a councillor. The request was refused and I know you needed his skills as a covert operative during apartheid days for your future use.
