Assembly Speaker Baleka Mbete filed her affidavit opposing the UDM's Constitutional Court application for a secret ballot in its motion of no confidence against President Zuma.
Mbete argues persuasively against the relief sought by the UDM. The Court will likely rule In the Speaker's favour on separation of powers grounds.
The victory will be a cover-up for the real reason for her opposition - ANC MP's voting in favour of the motion in a secret ballot. A wrong assumption, according to Mbete, as ANC MP's are not "weak-kneed, timid, cowardly, unprincipled and spineless. . ."
Madam Speaker it is not a wrong assumption, but an inexorable truth. Care to rebut? I don't think so!
