How can it be that Auditor General Shauket Fakie was allowed to submit his report on the arms deal to the president and the executive prior to its public disclosure, and then, under orders, omit factors that were less than "ideal"?

And why does everyone except the Democratic Alliance appear to have something to hide?

Patricia de Lille claimed to have all sorts of mud on the arms deal, until we discovered that she had sweet bugger all. Now, when the opportunity has come to voice concern, she sits quietly.

Is the DA the last independent party in South Africa?
