ActionSA national chairperson Michael Beaumont is adamant the DA must carry the blame for “handing Johannesburg to the ANC”.
This as the ping pong blame game continues among political parties that delivered the DA’s Mpho Phalatse the Joburg mayoral chains.
The fallout follows the voting out of Phalatse last week and her being replaced by Al-Jamah’s Thapelo Amad. The DA told the Sunday Times last weekend the blame lay at the door of the Patriotic Alliance and ActionSA for Phalatse’s ousting. According to the DA, the PA’s demands for two mayoral committee positions to vote in favour of Phalatse were unreasonable. It accused ActionSA of plotting to seize power for its own mayor working with the IFP and Freedom Front Plus, among others, while “driving a wedge” between the blue party and its deployee Phalatse.
