Knysna Coalition: DA Favouring COPE over ACDP?
Knysna has a hung council. The DA’s options are a deal with either COPE, the KUC or the ACDP.
Regards coalition talks, the Western Cape ACDP posted this on their Facebook page yesterday:
“The ACDP has a king maker option in Knysna, which we are considering.
The unexpected deadlock in Knysna is said to have taking the blue wave by surprise, but according to sources in the town, the DA was leaning towards an alliance with Cope, instead of the ACDP.
The ACDP’s Grant Haskin said his party did make gains in Knysna, which they were happy with. He hinted that rumours about DA and Cope talks were seemingly true.”
