Democracy is not consolidating and deepening in the Western Cape as claimed by analysts and the recent win for the DA is not sustainable and it is just a result of a knee jerk reaction by the voters of the Western Cape previously disenfranchised and a determined effort of those voters who always had the vote who all came out to vote. The Afrikaner whites were very comfortable under Mandela and Thabo Mbeki as they became four times richer under an ANC government. With a Zuma government English speaking whites are going to catch up as the influence of Stellenbosch University whizz kids in the Treasury and the Reserve bank will wane and the English legal eagles who helped Zuma get off the hook call in the chips on behalf of their interest group.
