Earlier this morning I read that Parliament was going to hold an all-day inquiry into exactly what transpired at Clifton Fourth Beach over the holidays.

We’ve heard from the security company, of course, who have produced time-stamped images to back up their version of events, but that whole fiasco is far from being put to bed.

The portfolio committee on environmental affairs will spend Monday on their inquiry, but who’s going to look into the Cape Party’s Clifton slaughter?

In case you didn’t know, the Cape Party have been around for a while, and are keen to see the Western Cape leave South Africa, in what they have dubbed “Cexit”.

We shit you not. This from the party’s website:

If the ANC-controlled South African government will not negotiate with us to stop its policy of persecution against the Cape and its people, then we will be forced to pursue our only option…

Through legal and peaceful means we will strive towards a democratic referendum in which we, the people of the Cape, may decide our own future and destiny as an independent state… The Cape Republic.

Will that mean the Vaalies need passports when they visit in December? Asking for a friend.

OK, so about this re-enacted slaughter – IOL reporting below:

The video re-enactment was posted by Cape Party as part of its 2019 elections campaign. The video was posted to the political party’s Facebook page with a caption reading: ” Following the shocking slaughter of a sheep on Clifton 4th Beach last month, the Cape Party’s response to EFF radicals was this age old Cape tradition…

“Unlike other cultures in Southern Africa, here in the Cape we have a different culture. We do not slaughter animals, and we do not tolerate racism,” says Cape Party leader Jack Miller in the video.

At this point, I would simply suggest you watch the video for yourself:

Ja, so that happened. Sorry, someone has already made the ‘slaughtermelon’ joke.

I can’t say I’m overly impressed, but I guess at least they’re not pulling any punches about whose votes they’re after, unlike the DA.

It’s going to be a long, painful lead-up to May.
