Momentum Already

The SACP Johannesburg Central Branch Executive Committee met yesterday and finalised arrangements for Sunday’s Branch General Meeting. The BGM will be held in our usual venue, SATAWU offices, 13th floor, Old Mutual Building, 29 Kerk Street, between Loveday and Harrison at 10h00 on January 29th. The Chris Hani Institute held a very successful Joe Slovo memorial seminar yesterday. The YCL has gone national with the Leon-Crystal-Williamson-Abramoff story. Let us hope that COSATU and especially can now take it up. It is intolerable that the DA can still try to preach emocracy and delivery when they are rotten to the core. SACP Northern Cape has kicked off its year in a decisive way. The Star’s story about dismissal of members in Moutse should be treated with care. The SACP will not instantly or automatically dismiss anyone. There will be due process and each case will be treated on its merits. There are no foregone conclusions. The “SHIFT” public lecture is tonight. Sorry for the late notice. Cmde Randall Howard of SATAWU was on the Vuyo Mbuli phone-in show this morning on SAFM (105.1) from 11h00 to 12h00 about the Transnet dispute.
