I make broad assumptions from what I read or hear, but I don’t really know. So I want to look at the elections from a different perspective. Let’s start with this observation: In South Africa today it takes just 2300 votes: <ul><li>to change the president and deputy president; </li><li>to change the cabinet; </li><li>to change the membership of parliament </li><li>to replace a provincial premier, so weakening an already weak federal feature of the constitution </li><li>to fire and replace the head of any government department, any chairman of a statutory commission, to shut down our equivalent of Scotland Yard or the FBI, to spring a notorious criminal from jail, or to condone or even reward criminal behaviour </li><li>and, with a few changes of personnel and a bit of legal sleight-of-hand, to stop a prosecution despite solid evidence of crime. </li></ul>All this has in fact happened since the Zuma faction of the ANC with its 2300 votes defeated the Mbeki faction of the ANC at the Polokwane party congress. The only word to describe what happened at Polokwane is the one I used at the time: it was a putsch. It gutted and made nonsense of our famed Constitution, and it gave us a democracy of a kind not generally known in the West. It usurped the rights of the electorate, made parliament a rubber stamp for party apparatchiks selected in smoke-filled rooms, and it shifted policy-making out of both the executive branch of government and the legislature. Power shifted decisively from the electorate to the party elite. As Mathews Phosa said, there is only one centre of power, and that is party HQ. Worst of all, there is nothing to prevent another Polokwane in a year or two, with another radical shift of power, another change of government and policy, another round of purges. All it takes is 2300 or so “disciplined cadres”. How did this come about? Obviously, part of the reason is that the Constitution is fatally flawed because proportional representation (as Van Zyl Slabbert tried to warn us) empowers politicians at the expense of the people. But Polokwane was something more than that: it was a deliberate, well organised and ruthlessly executed seizure of power that merely exploited the flaw in the Constitution. You can blame Jacob Zuma and his fanatics, or you can blame the criminals and shabby people who rallied around him, from Winnie Mandela to Baleka Mbete, and Mo Shaik. Or you can blame Mbeki’s vengeful victims and enemies, like Tokyo Sexwale or Mathews Phoza. But I can’t help thinking that this is the start of “the second stage of revolution” which has been planned for so long to install a “vanguard party” at the centre of the system. Our vaunted democracy is in the process of being gutted. However we vote, the party hierarchy will decide who governs and for how long, what policies will prevail, and who our foreign friends may be. Whatever the issue, the party will decide. In that sense, this has been a virtual election, not much different from Soviet elections that were regularly held under Stalin. People tend to forget that the Soviet constitution was much admired. It just didn’t apply to the nomenklatura. We are in much the same position: <ul></ul><li>The rule of law does not apply to Jacob Zuma, or to other apparatchiks in parliament and elsewhere, against whom solid evidence of criminal behaviour exists. The powerful consistently go free. </li><li>Equality before the law does not apply to Schabir Shaik. Thousands of sick people die in jail, Shaik is released in a cloud of lies and dissimulations. </li><li>Ordinary law does not apply to a judge who takes money from the people in whose favour he rules. It seems not to apply to drunken judges. </li><li>The ordinary laws on theft and fraud do not apply to thieving MPs. They get special deals, and special pardons. Even the Speaker of parliament can obtain a driver’s licence by fraud and go unpunished.</li>The nomenklatura are above the law. It is straight out of Soviet Moscow or, if you prefer, from Animal Farm. The nomenklatura are entrenching themselves. You can see it happening as they become steadily more corrupt, and more contemptuous of public opinion. The scum floats to the top. To call us either a democracy or a Rechtsstaat is fanciful and dishonest. It’s the latest form of SA denialism. Nor can we look to any “alternative government” to change proportional representation; each party’s elite will find reason to cling to the system in order to entrench the privilege of its own apparatchiks. Happily, not all is lost. The Constitution still commands great public respect, so that government and party feel obliged to observe its forms even while defying its spirit. The courts remain, in the main, defiantly independent and the press functions in its own haphazard and incompetent way. Most important for the moment is that the IEC still functions, and it has been possible, if not altogether likely, for the electorate to begin to remedy the situation – provided they did so in this election, or in the next. Let me try to sketch the situation: The ANC is in substantial disarray, riven by factionalism, with rival factions tapping each other’s phones, forging signatures on phoney documents, and hunting down dissidents. It uses patronage, bribery, intimidation, and occasionally assassination. Character assassination is routine. Both sides interfere in the objective functioning of the legal system. But political parties have immense inertia, and for the time being the ANC remains overwhelmingly the most powerful party. Can it be prevented from getting a two-thirds majority that would enable it to gut the Constitution? Can it, perhaps, be held to less than an absolute majority in this election, or the next? Cope has raised the hope that this just might happen. Of course, the DA is the official opposition, but I see no prospect that it can become an alternative government. The decision by Tony Leon and Ryan Coetzee to rebuild the party on a power base of whites was catastrophic. The party acquired its present status by exploiting the racial fears of whites to cannibalise the National Party, and it is now exploiting the racial fears of coloured people who think they are “not black enough” to cannibalise the Independent Democrats. That strategy is doomed, and not only because it has left the DA with a taint of racism. It is doomed because its support base is emigrating and dying off. The 2007 mini-census showed that we had fewer 20-year-old white males than 60-year-olds. Above the age of 60, whites make up 20% of the population; under the age of 10, they are less than 5%. In ten years’ time there will be no white power base. Demographic trends for coloured and Indian populations are much the same, with a small time lag. In short, the DA has no future unless it can outbid Cope for dissident black votes. And given its race-obsessed white and coloured support base, it has no hope of doing that. That leaves Cope, which is finding that to launch and establish a new party is the work of many years. If they manage to get 10% of the vote this time, I’ll view it as a magnificent triumph. If they get one MP, as the Progs once did, I’ll see it as success. So where does hope lie? It lies in the character of proportional representation systems. They naturally fragment political parties. They foster palace politics. They encourage a proliferation of minority parties. And in the end, they compel politicians to form shifting, unstable coalitions. In short, they compel compromise. Helen Zille has shown a talent for this kind of politics, and if she can restrain her party – and herself – from treating other opposition groups as mortal enemies, she might begin a process of coalition formation. But I notice that lately she has been venomous towards both De Lille and Cope, so I doubt that she has a clear coalition strategy in mind. The basic fact is this: to check the ANC we need Cope and the DA, and Inkatha and Bantu Holomisa, and the PAC and ACDP, and anybody else we can find. Instead of trying to eliminate and cannibalise small parties, we should make space for them and encourage them. In this diverse society, the essential political skill is the art of compromise. The challenge is not to get people to support the main parties as “an alternative government” but simply to get them to the polls – to vote against taxes, or for tribal law, for sharia if you must, for local grievances, for whatever reason. To contain the politicians, the people must vote against them. There lies the hope. If it is not realised, then we face a new freedom struggle. Indeed, it may be starting already: I discern some emergent similarities to the period in the fifties when Chief Justice Centlivres and the Black Sash and a few liberals began to demonstrate in support of the Constitution. We know what a long road lies beyond that point.

Apparently thousands of South Africans have been invited to JZ's R75-million bash. Exclude his family, praise-singers, bodyguards, the Shaiks and that chap who most definitely isn't in the Nando's advert and you're left with… well… at least a couple hundred free spots. You'll be pleased to know that our government didn't extend any invitations to leaders who came into power through a coup, or to leaders not recognised by the UN, AU or SADC. Leaders wanted by the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity, however, are another matter entirely. Innocent until proven guilty and all that. PRESIDENT IN WAITING - (JZ smells numbers) As he prepares to settle down in Tuinhuis, Msholozi shares the secret of his party's success. "Opposition parties campaigned by trying to belittle this organisation of the people, while we were busy campaigning our own way. We were innovative, fresh… different." Well, I'll agree on that point about the opposition. "For those who don't know the ANC… you touch the ANC, you touch a lion." Yes… but who in their right mind goes around touching lions? "The sangomas said the ANC will achieve a 50 percent victory in Limpopo. The ANC will never go below 60 percent… I smell 70 percent." Olfactory dysfunction, perhaps? Because later… "At that level of percentage you can smell it (two-thirds majority) just like something you smell in the kitchen. It's not a disappointment at all. Your colleagues are shifting the goalposts while they should be congratulating the ANC on its decisive victory." Yip, you can smell it… but you're not allowed to eat it. Now, that's not disappointing. Not at all. WAITING FOR A PRESIDENT - (Malema advises Motlanthe) The current occupant of Tuinhuis, who has pretty much been waiting for the Zuma presidency ever since he was sworn into office, had some rather presidential words for the new parliamentarians. "To the public representatives to be sworn in on May 6, I think this must be a lesson… if democracy is truly people centred… these public representatives must maintain the dynamic contact with the constituency and the community on an ongoing basis." Unfortunately no one was listening. Some were even booing. "It is completely unacceptable that a sitting president of the country was subjected to such undignified behaviour," said Cope's angry president Terror Lekota. "This proves that the separation of powers between state and party are blurred. Events of this nature are held to celebrate national unity and cohesion." He was, of course, quickly set straight by the ANC's Senzo Mchunu. "This is far from the truth. There was huge enthusiasm for the president. The crowd's displeasure was not a reflection of an attitude against the president. The crowds were merely expressing their dissatisfaction with the sound system which was of poor quality making them unable to hear the speeches of their leadership." Ah yes, that makes perfect sense. If you are having trouble hearing, make some more noise. One member of the ANC leadership, who never seems to have any trouble getting himself heard, is Julius Malema. "President Kgalema Motlanthe cannot choose where he wants to go. The ANC will decide. We are appealing to him that he shouldn't choose… a government protocol is not important to us. A former president who's now a deputy president, so what?" We can only hope that the chubby-cheeked one never occupies either position. Hoping that he learns some manners seems a little… well… far-fetched. A ZUMANATION - (Winnie tramples on Obama's hope parade...) So, what does the Zuma presidency hold for South Africans? "The Constitution of South Africa belongs to all South Africans. We have no intention of making it a political plaything." — Matthews Phosa "I believe we should stop shooting down everything he says and rather say we support your intention to combat crime." — Pik Botha "We will also work tirelessly to bring the DA to book over their selective service delivery and its treatment of poor people." — ANC spokesperson Chris Nissen. "The age of hope and promises is over. We are going work (sic) so watch us; we are going to be in action." — Winnie Madikizela-Mandela The age of hope is over? Damn! And there I was hoping that Phosa's declaration about the Constitution had nothing whatsoever to do with the ANC's 65.9 percent; that (despite the fact that no one cares what he has to say) Pik Botha may be right; and that the ANC was going to work tirelessly for the poor. No wonder Barack Obama's giving the big bash a skip…

They were speaking after President Kgalema Motlanthe's address to about 5 000 South Africans at Freedom Day celebrations at Absa Stadium in Durban. Motlanthe told the crowd that the "voting patterns in 2009's national poll disturbingly reflected our old divided past; which only goes to show that more work still needs to be done to de-racialise our society in all its essentials". IFP national spokesperson Musa Zondi described the statement as unfortunate. He said it was obvious that Motlanthe was speaking as a member of the ANC rather than the head of state. "As the father of the nation, for him to make that statement is really sad. Is he implying that if a person votes for a party that is led by a white person, then that person is racist?" he asked. Speaking of the increased number of votes the DA received, Zondi said political analysts had often commented that those who viewed the DA as a whites-only party, had missed the boat. "It appears that as long as you vote ANC, then you are a true democratic and you are not racist, but if you vote any other party, then you are racist. That sort of thinking is bad for our country," he said. Independent political analyst Adam Habib said while he agreed more work needed to be done to de-racialise society, he was not convinced that people who voted against the ANC did so because they were racist. "I think our election results have less to do with racism and more to do with the quality of a leader people want. For example, in the Western Cape the growth of DA was due to the increased numbers in the coloured vote. "These votes went to the DA because the coloured people felt the ANC was incompetent, and they wanted performance which they believe the DA could provide," he said. He said nationally, the situation was a much more complex matter, and there was a pattern that suggested a bit of racism. However, political analyst Protas Madlala said he felt Motlanthe's statement was an honest one. He said there was still the trend where white voters would be loyal to the DA and black voters would be loyal to the ANC. This, he said, was because there was still a lot of mistrust among South Africans. "As a nation what we should be happy about is that since 1994 we have had no racial incidents where whites and blacks are fighting each other or Indians and blacks fighting each other. We need to speak openly about such issues, it is only then that we can begin to heal our nation," he said. Newly elected DA leader in KwaZulu-Natal parliament, John Steenhuisen, said the ANC was in the habit of "pulling out the race card whenever their backs are against a wall". "The fact of the matter is the DA has stopped them from achieving a two-thirds majority nationally, and we won the Western Cape from them. People voted based on a party's performance and not for a particular race group," he said. He described the ANC as a "sore party that has clearly set out to use the divide and rule tactic". "If the ANC thinks that only white people voted for the DA, then they're clearly mistaken. South Africans across the spectrum voted for us because we ran a positive campaign and our message went out there, and we had a large number of minorities as well as a large number of black people vote for us," he said. Motlanthe also paid tribute to the youth and past generations who have fought for South Africa's 15 years of freedom. "In honouring the memory of these great South Africans let us recommit ourselves to continue with the struggle for the improvement of the lives of all our people, irrespective of race, gender or station in life," he said.

Zuma plans R75m party as unemployment soars

The stock market is down. Let's party.Despite the bleak economy, JACOB Zuma will spend R75 million to celebrate his inauguration as President of South Africa, where the financial downturn is expected to drive unemployment to 43 per cent. As crashing commodity prices and lower foreign investment cripple his country, Mr Zuma has invited kings and presidents to be among 4000 people at the Union Buildings in Pretoria on May 9. Government says it will be pulling out all the stops for the presidential inauguration of African National Congress leader Jacob Zuma. One hundred invitations have already been sent to heads of state around the world but government says leaders who have come to power through coups and are not recognised by the United Nations, the European Union and Southern African Development Community will not be attending the event. Mugabe to attend Zuma inauguration There will certainly be some people who may feel very let down by not receiving an invitation. But President Robert Mugabe appears certain to be among distinguished guests. Tibetan spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, may be getting used to being snubbed by South Africa - he’s not invited - but some African heads of state will have to learn that not everyone can be on the A-list. Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir is one name that does not feature, according to sources. But since he is considered a fugitive from the International Criminal Court (ICC), accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity in his country’s Darfur region, he would have risked arrest if he attended the ceremony that will be held at the Union Buildings in Tshwane (Pretoria). South Africa is a signatory to the Rome Statute of the ICC, meaning that it would have been obliged to arrest Al-Bashir and hand him over to the court at the Hague in the Netherlands for trial if he turned up, even if the government, like those of most other African countries, was opposed to his being indicted. Among other African heads of state unlikely to have been included are the leaders of Madagascar, Mauritania, Guinea-Bissau and Guinea, because all are seen as having ascended to power in their countries through undemocratic means. The guest list for the gala event, which is expected to feature special touches indicating the individual flavour of Zuma, will certainly include Zimbabwe’s president, Robert Mugabe, and other African leaders. Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has also received an invitation, but government spokesman Themba Maseko said on Monday the list of those who have sent their RSVPs has yet to be finalised. What is certain is that the inauguration will see many heads of state from all corners of the world, as well as premiers, local royalty and representatives from bodies such as the United Nations, the African Union and the Southern Africa Development Community. Ordinary South Africans will also be there, with tens of thousands expected to be bused in on the day, to take their place on the Union Building’s lawns to celebrate Zuma’s inauguration as the next head of government. Government spokesperson Themba Maseko says the event will be spectacular. "Thousands of South Africans have also been invited to be part of the celebrations. We are putting a lot of plans in place to make sure that the event becomes [one] that all South Africans can be proud of," says Maseko.

So don't be surprised very soon the shop will go out of stock for bananas. As the banana ripens, it develops dark spots or patches on the skin. The more dark patches it has, the higher will be its' immunity enhancement quality . Hence the Japanese love bananas for a good reason. According to a Japanese scientific research, banana contains TNF which has anti-cancer properties. The degree of anti-cancer effect corresponds to the degree of ripeness of the fruit, ie the riper the banana, the better the anti-cancer quality. In an animal experiment carried out by a professor in Tokyo U comparing the various health benefits of different fruits,using banana, grape, apple, water melon, pineapple, pear and persimmon, it was found that banana gave the best results. It increased the number of white blood cells, enhancedthe immunity of the body and produced anti-cancer substance TNF. The recommendation is to eat 1 to 2 banana a day to increase your body immunity to diseases like cold, flu and others. According to the Japanese professor, yellow skin bananas with dark spots on it are 8 times more effective in enhancing the property of white blood cells than the green skin version

Addressing throngs of jubilant supporters, many of whom had been cured of leprosy by touching the hem of his trousers, Zuma explained that the economy was important but that public holidays were more important. "Much work lies ahead," said Zuma. "And we will start it on Tuesday. And stop on Thursday afternoon. Or Wednesday, if we can get a doctor's note." He explained that "the real work" would begin next week, unless he decided to declare May a public holiday too. Zuma is almost guaranteed to become South Africa's fourth democratically elected President, and the first to own his own leopard-skin Alice band, after the ANC swept to a convincing victory in last week's general election. However, party insiders are reportedly working constantly to ensure that Zuma survives until his inauguration, a task made "extremely difficult by Msholozi's penchant for waving around assault rifles while singing and dancing". "So far we've managed to give him a toy AK whenever he gets in the mood to bust some moves," said one aide. "But we do worry that some fool is going to sell him a real one and he's going to pop a cap in himself." He said they were also having to keep ANC Youth League President Julius Malema "at a safe distance". "Nobody would ever doubt Comrade Julius's love for Msholozi," he said. "Julius adores Msholozi. He's written Msholozi's name all over his bag in Tip-Ex, and stuck pictures of him all over his homework diary. "But when he gets excited he tends to want to kill things, and we're not 100 percent sure how clear Julius's thinking is when he's in one of his lust-fuelled killing moods." Meanwhile Zuma has been widely quoted in local media comparing the victorious ANC to a lion. "For those who do not know the ANC: you touch the ANC, you touch a lion!" said Zuma. When asked by journalists whether the ANC was a like a lion because it made a huge amount of noise but spent all day sleeping and being fed by females, had mangy juvenile males tagging along trying to pick up scraps, and easily fell prey to inbreeding, Zuma said, "No, not really." <a href="http://www.hayibo.com/">http://www.hayibo.com/</a>

"Although it is far too early to know the degree to which the current swine flu outbreak warrants alarm, the number of cases and the speed with which the virus has spread around the globe serves as an opportunity to spread the message of the critical nature of preparedness," said Georges C. Benjamin, MD, FACP, FACEP (E), executive director of the APHA. APHA's Get Ready campaign helps all Americans prepare themselves, their families and their communities for all disasters and hazards, including pandemic flu, infectious disease, natural disasters and other emergencies. Along with a wealth of pandemic flu resources, visitors to the site will also find fact sheets, blog entries, handouts, podcasts, Q&As and a variety of other resources to help their families get ready for any type of emergency. Some of the preparedness tips for a potential pandemic include: Staying healthy and keeping others from getting sick by washing your hands frequently, avoiding close contact with people who are sick, covering your nose and mouth when you sneeze and staying home from work or school if sick; Creating an emergency preparedness kit with food, water, medical supplies and anything else you might need if you had to stay at home for an extended period of time; and Talking to your employer about their contingency plan for a potential situation where many employees are unable to work or must work from home. "While investing in our nation's public health infrastructure is an essential component of pandemic preparedness, it is also up to each of us to take steps as individuals and as members of a family and community to ensure we are well prepared when a public health emergency occurs," Benjamin said.

Stability of markets and currency in doubt as award-winning Finance Minister 'says goodbye'

The last time the Finance Minister briefly resigned it crashed the markets in Africa's largest economy and triggered a run on the Rand. The fate of the award winning 56-year-old, who has been courted by the World Bank among others, is seen as an indicator of the stability and direction of President Zuma's new government. The country's longest serving finance minister would be moved to a new oversight body called the central planning commission when the post-election cabinet is announced on 9 May, reports indicated yesterday. An unnamed member of the minister's staff told a South African newspaper, the Sunday Times, that Mr Manuel had already held a function to say goodbye to his colleagues at Finance. There has been no public comment from the ANC, which insisted during the campaign that Mr Manuel would retain his job. In theory, the new commission would exercise considerable power in monitoring the government's performance and work from inside the office of the President. It is possible that Mr Manuel could serve in both roles. However, any move for the Western Cape politician will add to uncertainty about policy direction under Mr Zuma, a former communist. The Zulu showman narrowly failed to secure the two-thirds majority he had targeted in last week's election. This means he will not be able to change the constitution without the support of the opposition. But he won a substantial 65.9 percent of the vote. Mr Zuma has close links to the hard left and trade unions which will be expecting to have a more influential voice in government. The Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu), which has clashed often with Mr Manuel, wasted little time in demanding a return on its political investment in Mr Zuma. "We must take vigorous action to protect workers from the impact of the global economic crisis, create new, decent jobs, transform the lives of the poor majority of South Africans and ensure that we all share in the fruits of our labour" Cosatu said yesterday. While the legacy of former president Thabo Mbeki has been tarnished by Aids denial, he and Mr Manuel can take the credit for relatively robust public finances. The political capital enjoyed by the ANC in the wake of apartheid was used in part to direct the party away from its left-wing command economy roots and to pay down public debt with a monetarist agenda. The dividends from that unpopular housekeeping have since been ploughed back into public services and benefits, with South Africa leading the developing world in welfare spending. It's a record that has won Mr Manuel many admirers both inside and outside the country and saw him placed at number four on the ANC party list earlier this year. That list determines the order in which candidates will move into parliament but also highlights their standing in the party. Mr Manuel grew up poor in Cape Town where under apartheid his mixed race background saw him classified as "coloured". After joining the ANC, he was imprisoned several times. He has held his current job since 1996, While Mr Manuel's value to the ANC has been apparent for some time, his status as a top-table politician came on 23 September when Mr Mbeki resigned as president. Ten cabinet ministers, including Mr Manuel, quickly announced their departures, however, it was the Finance Minister's resignation that mattered. Within an hour, millions of Rand were wiped off the value of stocks, the market fell 4 per cent and the Rand itself fell nearly 3 per cent against the dollar. Then Mr Manuel rescinded his resignation, declared himself "more than prepared" to serve under a new president. Sources close to Mr Manuel have hinted that he may hanker after the deputy presidency, allowing him to play a similar role to that of Mr Mbeki during the one-term Mandela administration. Possible replacements for the finance post include ANC stalwart Cyril Ramaphosa and Mr Manuel's accident-prone deputy Nhlanhla Nene, who attracted unwanted fame by breaking his chair in a live interview. Many in the business community would like to see Pravin Gordhan, who has overseen a near doubling in tax revenues as head of the tax authority, take over.

The delicate matter of how to remove 60-year-old Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma from her prestigious post was believed to be under discussion as Mr Zuma set about extensively rebuilding the cabinet bequeathed to him by his predecessor. Mr Zuma and the Foreign Minister divorced several years ago and their relations are said to be "frosty". Mr Zuma has several wives and faces a quandary over which one will now become the country's first lady. Ms Dlamini-Zuma was appointed Foreign Minister by long-serving former president Thabo Mbeki, who is now seen as Mr Zuma's enemy. She was suggested as a possible replacement for Mr Zuma when he was fired as deputy president by Mr Mbeki over corruption and racketeering allegations in 2005. Ms Dlamini-Zuma has been accused of embarrassing South Africa by backing governments with dubious human rights records, including the Mugabe regime in Zimbabwe. Reports at the weekend said she should be the first cabinet minister to be replaced by Mr Zuma, claiming she had "brought nothing but shame and dishonour" to the country. The pressure on Mr Zuma to fire her came as the president-elect appeared before the nation's political elite and foreign diplomats in the capital, Pretoria, after the announcement of final results in the general election. Gone was the singing-and-dancing routine that is his political stock in trade. Instead, in formally accepting the African National Congress's crushing election win, the former goatherd and "houseboy" quietly read an acceptance speech in which he set out his priorities for government. "The new president of the republic will be a president for all, and he will work to unite the country around a program of action that will see an improvement in the delivery of services," Mr Zuma said. "He will strive to turn the climate of the country into a positive and relaxed one that makes people free to be creative and work hard to improve their lives and the economy of the country." Addressing foreign diplomats, Mr Zuma pledged South Africa would continue to play a key role in international affairs and singled out neighbouring Zimbabwe to applaud the progress made in power-sharing. Mr Zuma failed by the narrowest of margins to get a two-thirds majority. But it was still a crushing victory, with the ANC getting 65.96 per cent of the vote. The nearest opposition party, the white-led Democratic Alliance, was on 16.68 per cent. At the last election five years ago, the ANC got 69.69 per cent, and most analysts believe Mr Zuma did astonishingly well given last year's major split in the ranks of the ANC that saw the ousting of Mr Mbeki. Mr Zuma's victory also stacks up well against the 1994 election, the first after the overthrow of apartheid, when Nelson Mandela achieved a vote of just over 60 per cent. The failure to achieve the two-thirds majority means the new government will not have the power to change the constitution unilaterally. Mr Zuma again insisted last night it was never its intention to do so, anyway. But most analysts agree that with the sort of majority it has - 264 seats in a national parliament of 400 - the party can virtually do what it likes. As well as winning big nationally, the ANC captured overwhelming control of eight of the nine provincial parliaments, only the local government in Cape Town falling to the DA. The party that split from the ANC last year, the Congress of the People, made up mainly of Mbeki loyalists who departed when Mr Zuma became leader, ended up with 7.42 per cent and 30 seats in the parliament.
