DA zabelezila svuda skok. Ocekivano ima nesto bolje rezultate na lokalnim izborima (dosta ljudi je pricalo da ce zbog boljeg menadzmenta da glasa za DA na lokalu).

 

Gauteng lokalni

2009. DA 22%, ANC 64%

2014. DA 33%, ANC 52%

 

 

IFP doziveo katastrofu, duplo manje glasova. DA ih bije u Kvazulu Natalu :D

 

Inace jedan od predizbornih ciljeva DA je bio da se spusti ANC na ispod 2/3 sobzorm da se pricalo o promeni ustava.

Prime Minister David Cameron has promised Britain "will do what we can" to help find more than 200 kidnapped Nigerian schoolgirls.

He made the comments as he held a sign bearing the "#Bring Back Our Girls" slogan on the BBC's Andrew Marr show.

Mr Cameron is the latest high-profile supporter of the social media campaign after US First Lady Michelle Obama was pictured with a similar poster.

The Islamist militant group Boko Haram has claimed the abductions.

 

During the programme, fellow guest Christiane Amanpour, CNN's chief international correspondent, handed Mr Cameron the sign and asked if he would like to join the campaign.

Taking it from her, he replied: "Happily."

Mr Cameron later tweeted: "Proud to support #BringBackOurGirls."

 

'Immensely complicated'

 

He told the BBC One programme: "I rang the Nigerian president to offer anything that would be helpful and we agreed to send out a team that includes some counter-terrorism and intelligence experts to work alongside the bigger American team that's going out there.

"We stand ready to do anything more that the Nigerians would want."

He said it was unlikely Nigeria would ask for British troops to help but added: "I said to President Jonathan where we can help, please ask, and we will see what we can do."

Mr Cameron also spoke of the importance of tackling extremism around the world.

"This is not just a problem in Nigeria," he said. "We're seeing this really violent extreme Islamism - we see problems in Pakistan, we see problems in other parts of Africa, problems in the Middle East.

"Also, let's be frank, here in the UK there is still too much support for extremism that we have to tackle, whether it's in schools or colleges or universities or wherever."

He recognised it was not an easy task to look for the girls, who were taken from their school in Chibok on 14 April.

 

'Information gaps'

They (the schoolgirls) are in the hands of a very disparate group which is extremely irrational and difficult to deal with and utterly merciless in the example it has shown in the past”

"We can't just pile in and do whatever we'd like," said Mr Cameron. "It's immensely complicated because they are probably in this deep area of jungle that is three times the size of Wales.

"But it's good that efforts are being stepped up and we'll do what we can."

The Foreign Office has said there are "large information gaps" because of the scale and nature of the incident.

"The priority for the team in the first instance is establishing the facts such as the precise identities of those taken and what has actually happened to help Nigeria build a better picture," a spokesman said.

Boko Haram at a glance

 

• Founded in 2002
• Initially focused on opposing Western education - Boko Haram means "Western education is forbidden" in the local Hausa language
• Launched military operations in 2009 to create Islamic state
• Thousands killed, mostly in north-eastern Nigeria - also attacked police and UN headquarters in capital, Abuja
• Some three million people affected
• Declared terrorist group by US in 2013

• Profile: Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau
• Who are Boko Haram?
• Abduction timeline

Mrs Obama has described herself and Barack Obama as being "outraged and heartbroken" over the girls' abduction.

Speaking instead of her husband in the weekly presidential address, she said: "What happened in Nigeria was not an isolated incident. It's a story we see every day as girls around the world risk their lives to pursue their ambitions."

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, said it was "wonderful" there was a global campaign to support the girls.

 

Speaking to The World This Weekend on BBC Radio 4, the leader of the Anglican Church said the girls were at "colossal risk" from the extremists holding them.

"They are in the hands of a very disparate group which is extremely irrational and difficult to deal with and utterly merciless in the example it has shown in the past," Archbishop Welby said.

During Sunday's programme, Amanpour told Marr about the social media drive, saying: "On the one hand, the hashtag is great because it mobilises people.

"On the other hand, I'm a tiny bit concerned it's a big bubble that then collapses with nothing really being done."

However she said Nigeria was "100% saturated with social media" and that "this (campaign) is really getting to the people in Nigeria".

Boko Haram has admitted capturing the girls, saying they should never have been in school and should get married instead. The group has also threatened to sell the girls as "slaves".

The name Boko Haram means "Western education is forbidden" in the local Hausa language, and the group has been engaged in a violent campaign to create an Islamic state since 2009.

It is thought the majority of the girls are Christians, although a number of Muslims are among those who were taken.

Chibok, from where they were abducted, is a small community where families are made up of members of both faiths.

 

 

 

na stranu boko-haramsko očekivano ludilo, koliko je blentavo da premijer VB nosi slogane sa hashtagom (aj mišel nije na funkciji)? jeez, na šta je spala politika

[Muwan]

Kada ne želiš ili si jednostavno nesposoban da uradiš nešto korisno, a ti uzmi i maši hashtagom. Ne može da omane.

 

Naravno kada se sledeći put bude lomilo da li nekog treba bombardovati, onda će se sa hashtagovanja preći na veoma konkrentne političke poteze.

[Prospero]

ja sam mislio da je fotošop kad sam prvi put video sliku.

 

teroristička grupa otela ljude i sada ide "high-profile social media campaign". u kakvom su tripu ti ljudi stvarno više ne znam.

[Dagmar]

To neko samoreklamerstvo, kapiram da su cilj podizanje podrske javosti za obama reign i tako to.

Koja tragikomedija, vlada koristi social media da apeluje na... vladu?

[Prospero]

pa ko će da bringbackuje, besmisleno je pozivati vlast da to uradi kada nema trunke sposobnosti i kapaciteta za to.

[braca]

Dobro, cinicni pametnjakovici, sta bi ste vi uradili u konkretnoj situaciji da ste Obama (ili neki drugi od gospodara sveta)?

[Аврам Гојић]

ja bih malo da budem djavolji advokat. koliko shvatam, priča se o raznim scenarijima za oslobađanje devojčica, od kojih svi uključuju nekakvu upotrebu oružane sile jer to bez toga neće moći da se oposli. meni ovo izgleda kao awareness campaign koja je priprema za nekakvu međunarodnu policijsku akciju.
