[00:00:00]Do you think the MKP is a democratic party?

[00:00:04]>> The MK party has no bone of democracy in it.

[00:00:09]You saw how in was was first appointed and then co-opted into the into the national command which which makes all the decisions. I mean a party of that has 45% supporting in KZN, a huge province like that is run by seven men and I think one woman if I'm not mistaken. That's not how democracy works and those structures that are below them were handpicked by them.

[00:00:38]That's not democratic and that's why they they are all these fights below the the the top eight and there are all these threats of violence all the time.

[00:00:47]>> The one of the reasons why I I would I'm not likely to vote for them is because of how they don't believe in our constitution.

[00:00:56]And I don't know what that says about the people who voted for them. I living in this country and and their views on on that because I mean these people want do they not want to scrap the constitution?

[00:01:05]>> They do and they want to place above parliament traditional leaders who will likely report to Jacob Zuma.

[00:01:13]>> That's dangerous.

[00:01:16]>> [laughter] >> That is a recipe for disaster.
