“Given the sensitivity and the nature of the proposed draft resolution, we respectfully request that the Speaker, in the capacity of Chairperson of the National Assembly Programming Committee, convene an urgent meeting to ensure the draft resolution is tabled before the end of the week.”

MALEMA’S NAME-CALLING
During yesterday’s protests, EFF leader Julius Malema went as far as calling Israel murderers.

Anyone within Malema’s firing line was not spared as he also took his shot at President Cyril Ramaphosa and accused him of being financed by the Jewish people and the Israeli Government.
“Cyril Ramaphosa was made president by the money donated to him by the Jewish people behind this embassy. Jewish who are not progressive. That’s why he can’t say anything.
