DA puts coalitions at risk with Zille’s disdain for smaller parties: Cope

What do Premier Helen Zille and President Jacob Zuma have in common? A disdain for “smaller parties”‚ according to one of the smaller parties - the Congress of the People (Cope). Spokesperson Dennis Bloem was reacting to former Democratic Alliance (DA) leader Zille's “warning to the community of Eersterust not to ‘vote for a small party’ ”‚ which he described as “both hypocritical and anti-democratic”.
