First world politics. <p>DA Federal Chairman Joe Seremane has stated that <a href="http://www.iol.co.za/index.php?set_id=1&#38;click_id=6&#38;art_id=vn20070508042605349C651192">he will not seek the position</a> of leader of the DA in parliament.</p> <blockquote> <p>I don&#8217;t think I will. I&#8217;m not desperate. I stood for (national) party leader because a step had to be taken. I said my election would be a moment of truth for the party</p> </blockquote> <p>I believe the extremely small number of votes he received (a mere 65 votes out of over 1000) during the DA leadership elections this past weekend probably played a factor in this decision.</p> Tue, 08 May 2007 17:30:00 -0400 urn:uuid:2146ffdd-0b18-402c-9bd1-6589111fc7c8 Farrel http://www.politics.za.net/articles/2007/05/08/seremane-will-not-represent-da-in-parliament DA National Government The Legislature <p>Didn&#8217;t think he stood a chance in a party that represents white exclusitivity. I&#8217;m glad Helen Zille got the post. Maybe she will hang herself as an idiot who deserves the apt name &#8220;Godzille.</p> Thu, 10 May 2007 13:32:38 -0400 urn:uuid:e318b03b-507e-46c7-8c4c-9d6a580168ca http://www.politics.za.net/articles/2007/05/08/seremane-will-not-represent-da-in-parliament#comment-865
