WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Johannesburg – CONGRESS of the People (COPE) deputy president Mbhazima Shilowa is expected to propose that a neutral party leader be appointed until his power struggle with party president Mosiuoa Lekota has been resolved.
Mr Shilowa and Mr Lekota are locked in a bitter battle over control of COPE. The fight has affected the process of building party structures and there are doubts whether it will be ready to contest next year’s local government elections.
A well-placed source told Business Day that Mr Shilowa would suggest to the congress national committee that “neutral” mediators be appointed to find a solution, and a neutral leader be chosen in the meantime.
Mr Shilowa said yesterday he was appealing against a South Gauteng High Court judgment that confirmed Mr Lekota as the president of the party.
He said the appeal meant that the vote of no confidence passed in Mr Lekota and communications head Phillip Dexter “stays put”.
The two were reinstated by the court on Sunday after a COPE gathering removed them two weeks ago.
Mr Shilowa’s proposal, if accepted by the Lekota group, could shift the focus from the courts to building branches in time for the election.
But the proposal is likely to be rejected by the Lekota camp, judging from his response to question from Business Day yesterday.
“The leadership was put in place by the congress of COPE. No COPE structure has the powers to appoint leaders,” said Mr Lekota.
