One would have hoped that at this stage the different parties would already be working together but instead Zanu (PF) continues to rule by decree and MDC continues to act as an opposition.

EDITOR - 25 days after the signing ceremony and nothing has changed on the socio-economic and political landscape of our country.

It is shocking that Mbeki is expected to come back and reign in some sanity…now that he has been removed as South African President, maybe our political parties hope that he will come and run the country while they still negotiate who takes which ministry.

Surely, international humanitarian assistance has to begin as a matter of yesterday and that’s not a contentious ministry…Or is it? Zanu (PF) is said to be arguing that the Ministry of Home Affairs belongs to ZAPU under the unity accord agreement of 1987.
The whole GNU deal doesn’t make sense. Firstly people signed a deal without deciding such fundamental issues. Secondly, how could the MDC take Mugabe’s word over ministries? Thirdly, how desperate do they think the MDC is as to rush and grab small ministries?
Interesting how the newly elected MPs requested that the RBZ exempt them from daily cash withdrawal limits…where are the people in this whole agenda? – COLLEN CHIBANGO, The Netherlands
