The Cape Town Fires and the No Confidence Vote in Parliament

City Press reports the motion of no confidence in President Zuma was proposed by Agang SA, who subsequently tried but failed to get it postponed pending the outcome of a court bid to prevent Speaker Baleka Mbete from presiding over the debate. Agang SA also wants voting to be held by secret ballot, not open vote as is currently the case. At the same time of this charade, more than 100 South African firefighters are battling wildfires on the mountains around Cape Town. Thousands of hectares of vegetation have been reduced to ashes on Chapman's Peak, while several homes and a holiday lodge have been destroyed.
