Zanu-PF UK Meeting - September 2015
Zanu-PF United Kingdom chapter has warned political parties to know that there is humanity that overrides their political affiliations and interests.
The chapter said in these days when we are calling for politics with a conscience. Where the mood in the nation is a clamour for Moral Politics, we have a political party mercilessly attacking a bereaved family!
"Political parties should never forget that beyond politics are human beings. The MDC-T party is not as bereaved as Hon Mahlangu's family," said the chapter.
"For this party to stand there and disrespect a family that has just lost a father, son, husband and brother is morally reprehensible. What political expediency can really be gained out of such an insensitive statement?"
The chapter said within a week the party members will go back to their day to day business, the Mahlangu family will continue to have a gap, a vacancy to which there can never be a by-election.
"And yet this party is crying more than the bereaved and even has the temerity to cast aspersions on them!? To the Mahlangu family we say, we are sorry for your loss," said the chapter.
