South Africa

Sasco Sam Floyd Shivambu and the rest of his crew (Sasco/ANCYL) got their collective hides handed to them in the recent SRC elections.-

"Students at the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits) have had enough of parties who are out of touch with their political needs. At this week’s student representative council (SRC) elections, the African National Congress Youth League/South African Students’ Congress (Sasco) alliance lost all 15 seats it won in a clean sweep last year."

 

Floyd had this say about the sound drubbing they had received -

"[We lost] because the campus demographics were not suitable for us to win. We represent worker class poor students and we push political issues such as equity and transformation, but the majority of the students do not care about those issues. They care about parking and coffee shops.”

 

Clearly Floyd skipped the Logic 101 Class, so lets help him out a bit. IT WAS A CLEAN SWEEP FLOYD. Are you telling us that you couldn't manage ONE seat with your "workerclass poor student (are we in 1917 Russia?)" connections?? Maybe there is a simpler answer? Could it be that you are completely out of touch with the people you are supposed to represent?

Methinks Floyd needs to study up on Occams Razor...
