The ANC is determined and brilliant at silencing or ignoring contrary voices both within its ranks and outside. Look at the latest NGC and see how delegates uniformly steered clear of criticising the draconian and damaging visa regulations relating to children travelling into and out of South Africa, in spite of the overwhelming damage it is doing to the tourism industry and therefore our economy. Many opposition party politicians, including ACDP members experience this daily in a multitude of ways. It seems the only solution is a change of government.
