SACP in KZN warns opposition parties not to trample on the country’s negotiated settlement

21 November 2012

The South African Communist Party in the Moses Mabhida Region (previously known as KwaZulu-Natal) has warned opposition parties who have taken the National Assembly to court in an attempt to force a Parliamentary debate on a motion of no confidence on President Jacob Zuma.

SACP KZN Provincial Secretary Themba Mthembu said this court action, which seeks to question the constitutionality of our parliamentary processes, could shake the basic foundations of the country’s negotiated settlement and plunge the country into a constitutional crisis.

Western Cape High Court Judge Dennis Davis said he would give his judgment tomorrow following the National Assembly debate today.

The motion was mandated by eight opposition parties.
