De Beer: Helen Zille’s plan for the GNU & SA’s “napping” intel services

Loading player...
Democratic Alliance (DA) Federal Chair Helen Zille “has a plan with the GNU and the GNU clearly has no counter plan for Helen Zille”. So says Neil De Beer, the President of the United Independent Movement (UIM). In this interview with BizNews, he states that it is “plain and simple” that Zille is calling the shots in the Government of National Unity (GNU).” Describing her as “tactically brilliant”, De Beer says she will “wag this dog's tail” - and is going to “wreckball them every opportunity she has”. As for the future of the GNU, he says: “Either the DA is going to dominate this and continually outwork, outshine, outmove, or the ANC is going to continually outmaneuver, outplan, outbreak, out demonize the continual efforts to bring this GNU to what we, the citizens of this country, are praying and hoping for, and that is a better life for all”. De Beer gives an update on the secret military training camp found in Mpumalanga recently, and dissects the reasons why the country’s intelligence services are “napping”. He also hails the formidable fightback against crime in KZN where people are now “thinking twice” before picking up a gun and shooting at the police.
