I have a feeling that zoompie is finished this time around.
Yes, the ANC can choose to further ignore the constitution by blocking an impeachment vote, or by not removing him as the ANC president (like they did Mbeki). The only recourse then is to approach the ConCourt again to declare such a decision by the NA to be invalid.
Either way, the ANC has now been shown by the highest court in the country to be morally bankrupt. Unless they throw JZ under the bus, the voters will have to speak at the next elections. If the voters then continue to support such a morally bankrupt party to the extent of allowing them to form another government, well then this country is fukked and I am on the next plane out.
Having said all that, I think the ANC leadership will come to their senses and remove him as ANC prez which opens the way for JZ to resign as the prez of RSA, keeping his lifetime pension in place.
OTOH, I sincerely hope the majority of ANC MP's will grow a pair and support the DA's impeachment motion which will throw JZ out with no more benefits from the taxpayer.
