  The above quote sums up the average ANC cadre’s schizophrenic relationship with reality and truth.  On the one hand, Molewa wants its MPs to toe the party line (in order to protect both a faux image of unity and a sorely corrupt leadership), while on the other hand pretending that it’s the voter’s duty to be altruistic in defending the public interest.  The fly in the ointment, dear minister, is that your organisation has consistently failed the public interest and you have done nothing concrete to address this failure.  All you’ve done is to trumpet hollow promises, vacuous evasions and transparent deflections.
