ANCYLLY LADS! 06/02/2008 10:02
Max, that was an echo of what many of us feel (April, old fella, people are allowed to have differing opinions in a democracy ...)!
I am also curious ... how does a 37 year old man qualify as "youth"? I am MOST pleased if the 30-40 year bracket is still seen as "youth", cos then I am not yet over the hill! Excellent!
On the choice of 'term of endearment' for Mr Mbalula ... why not respect him appropriately and simply call him "April"? ONLY a thought ... Viva politicomedy! - Cynicus |

The overuse of alcohol in our society has contributed directly to the decay of our moral fiber. Alcohol also contributes to most of the motor vehicle accidents on the roads and can also be directly link to the violent nature of people in our society. It has become normal for families on a Sunday to have a braai with beers and sometimes even something stronger - what have happened to the days when families attended church together and after church to have a nice family lunch with mom dad and all the children sitting around the same table. I for one do make sure that this is a tradition in my household to ensure I do not lose touch with my children and my family. I believe the legality of alcohol needs to be revised as drugs like dagga cocaine and other illegal drugs do not contribute as much to the lack of morality in our society than what alcohol does. - colin |

You may find it useful to look up a little on Max du Preez's history. Additionally, try a dictionary for a definition of "racist" ...

Watch out Max! Some of your old buddies will be baying for your blood pretty soon! I fully agree with you though. The ANC Youth League add absolutely nothing but increased levels of militant mindsets to the political arena. Saliem: Where the hell do you get off? Unfortunately the world sees African culture as being permeated with corruption, deceit and cronyism. Zuma/Mbeki/ANC contributed to this unfortunate perception. Toyi-toyi instead of maths classes won't fix it. - LJE |

You are an angry liberal that you stoop SO low to call the youth LEAGUE DOGS. Why are you bitter Max???

By your logic perhaps you might offer a better solution by banning driving on Sundays to reduce accidents. - Trojan |

Embarrassment 06/02/2008 10:23
Indeed, Max, the ANCYL is an embarrassment to the ruling party. And to the whole country! But then again, Winnie and her women's league aren't much better either. Neither is the ANC's association with the SACP or COSATU. It's just a pity that for writing your article, you're going to be called a racist... I know better, I've followed your journalism for 20 years. Keep it up! - Mark |

On the button,MAX. Fikile was so ashamed with being a fool (April)he changed his name. Was'nt he the person who used ANCYL money to buy his mother a million rand house? Last time I checked, being a youth was in the age group of 18ish BUT 37? I am sure the gravy train is running low, so now we go and stand in parliment to get more gravy.

allow this "CHILD" to run this country before he passes "grade...?" we are in for hard times ahead of us. I'm all for change, but

The cost associated with having alcohol as part of our society is much higher than the benefits we derived from it - colin |

Why do so many of you jump to racism? It is foolishness of the highest degree and shows your limited ability to see beyond your own nose. We are living in a country where the nation needs to come to terms with itself. We live in a country where Democracy is an ideal we all want to bring to fruition... and Democracy is held in the hands of open debate. The "youth league" are not our government. They are NOT our leaders. They do NOT hold the power in this country. So how can they feel it is their right to tell me whether or not I can have a drink on Sunday? That smacks of the old regime in itself - where are they coming from? Ban alcohol on Sunday if you wish, you "youth", I'll just stock up on Saturday!! Cheers! - Goodness Gracious |

prescribed drinking hours. 06/02/2008 10:46
The only countries in the world who restrict the use of alcohol are the Islamic countries (based on faith) and some of the old English colonies. The latter still suffer from antiquated Victorian rulings, which are generally pathetic. The same organisation (ANC) calls for legislating of prostitution during 2010 to make (tax) money. Why not encourage drinking 24/7: makes even more money! - Benzo |

There are more pressing issues facing the youth of today, & yet the ''Youth League'' is focusing on matters that are really irrelevant to them. They are just a bunch of attention seekers who are gearing themselves for cabinet positions under their puppet JZ. If they think most of the youth in RSA are taking them seroiusly, I pity them. They must think again(if they do have brains to think)! Well said Max. - Ricky |

Objectively... 06/02/2008 10:49
I agree with colin, the guys at the ANCYL might be on to something. To curb alcohol abuse & in doing so also curb the moral decay of our society, which is linked with the spread of HIV/AIDS, drastic measures need to be taken. The country's youth (regardless of race) is out of control, face it. Besides, nobody said not to drink on a sunday, it should just not be sold, u hav 6 whole days in a week to go get that sunday bottle of wine.... - Fox |

Anytime you can't find a reasonable response to soemone who ahs a different point of view you resort to calling us racist. Can't you provide a reasoned argument for a change. Racist is a very serious label and misusing it to hide your own shortcomings is an insult to people who have really suffered racism.

anc youth league 06/02/2008 10:53
Being a JZ fan, I admire Mbalula and ANCYL a lot. However, I totally disagree with them on their call to ban alcohol sales on Sundays. Why would parliament pass a narrow minded legislation like that? ANCYL needs to realise that people have got different choices, and they mustn't impose theirs on us, including religious beliefs. Being Christians themselves doesn't mean we all belong to the same religion. Wake up and face reality my brothers!! - bheki |

These OVER-AGE pricks are just out to get these black cars and "above average" govt perks rather than be a voice to raise out concerns relevant to what the YOUTH have to say.

What is hate speach 06/02/2008 10:55
When we have an effective united opposition that can truly offer an alternative to the incompetence of the current and impending government or a truly democratically elected powerful ANC Government. Then maybe we can look into the varsity of selling of liquor on Sunday or legalising prostitution. The government can?t even get basic amenities delivered to the people and we want a wannabe bunch of kings trying to dictate what I as an individual am or am not allowed to do on a Sunday, when they can?t even find effective leadership. Were are the true leaders of the ANC (proper stalwarts of the ANC) and were is THE powerful opposition party. I say let the two Godzilla?s unite Delill and Zilla. Dan jy sal sien die poppa dance.

Why do you think their is 1200 changes made to your Bible in the last 60 years? To break down the deinty of Jesus Christ. You are being blinded by the lie of the world.

Alcohol is indeed a problem, but at least get some wisdom from the rest of the world on how to deal with it. Australians are known for their drinking, but they don't drink and drive like we do.

In their case i am not sure if sleep will help but what the heck, let them sleep, i think that will be the only smart thing they can do.

Well reading you're colum I could see once again, there is nothing good to say about the ANC. At least the DA don't use their Youth League to do the dirty work for them! - Andre F |

Colin who do you think you are? Some of us like our alcohol and some of us enjoy it responsibly, to even suggest to remove it from our society is just plain arrogance, if your out dated christain beliefs are behind this then I suggest you read something else other than the bible! - Justin |

Alcohol 06/02/2008 11:45
Name one reason to make alcohol legal at all,Name one good thing it does (Besides relax the weak minded who need an escape from reality).It adds to every crime,and turns a decent person into a disgrace.This is one of the few things the ANCYL have said that makes any sense.No doubt they're a bunch of half-minded airheads but people who can't handle no alcohol for a day or finds it a big problem,might want to go check themselves into an A.A as soon as possible. - B.Z |

booze is colour blind 06/02/2008 11:52
Alcohol abuse sees no colour broer. An entire adult population in Alaska was almost decimated by alcohol, dumped on them by westerners. Unfortunately the same happens in every township in Mzansi, where SAB and Brandhouse advertise alcohol on every street corner. We should not be surprised. - Bra Darkie |

ANCYL 06/02/2008 11:57
Well... 567 Cape Talk pointed out that the League had 2 spectacular parties in the past with a free bar at the one.
Maybe they have learnt their lesson and decided to avoid the crushing hangovers on Monday mornings..?? Could it be that they are trying to right their erring ways??
I think not. Another prime example of a minority trying to force their opinions on the rest. Have we, as a South African nation, not had enough of this already? - Theunis |

Grow up 06/02/2008 11:58
Well said Max. The ANC and ANCYL have the abillity to be a great political party for all the people. But it seems political in-fighting, self enrichment, lazyness, incompentence and political propaganda for self gain have overtook the party and what they used to stand for. I'm sure Madiba and old ANC stallwards must be very proud. - Andre |

Max, write about what you think is useful for RSA. ANCYL has put forth its original thinking and here you come with all your venomous attacks. Suggest a national topic and invite us for feedback. Do not waste our time with your ANC hatred. Be man eneough and admit that ANC and its components make you sick. - Max |

Spot on Max 06/02/2008 12:01
You see Max you won my support on this lines and thank you "They were the first to stand up on a stage and call the country's president ugly names. They were the ones who heckled and booed one of the stalwarts of the struggle against apartheid, Mosioua Lekota, at the Polokwane jamboree"..any kind of disrespect of the country's president should be condenmed!!no matter how passionate one feels about their reasons..Disrespect againts the elders of the movement cannot be tolerated..

unfortunately.. 06/02/2008 12:05
I agree with you about the snotkop sentiment, but power the ANCYL does have. Even before the Zuma era,
guys like Markgraaf (who had an embarrassing history as an exposed racist) made a deal with the ANC
Youth legue which saw Markgraaf rising to prominence in SA Rugby again.ANCYL is a powerful mafia, and
one of the reasons I am becoming increasingly concerned about SA's future. - kwk |

Youth Leaugue 06/02/2008 12:06
I agree with you Max...the youth league begins and ends with the Media. Bury them!! They are insane and irresponsible, gung ho, self centered and clearly not very bright....they would make good foot soldiers in war...sadly for them there is no war. Zuma and your youth league: stick your machine guns where the sun dont shine and dance your way into the hearts of those who buy your rubbish...the rest of us dont buy it!!! - Barry |

The 'league will always be in a position to influence government. For as long as they can lead our "leaders" by the nose, that is... Funny how our presidents (past and present) have no power to stop them. I wonder who is really running this country. - HRS |
