I'm all with Ben Trovato's article in the Business Times last weekend - how the ANC gets away with changing a few street names and doing other populist things to convince our people that they have uplifted them from the chains of oppression is beyond me.. you can't fool all of the people all of the time - a cliche i know but it's true.. the time of reckoning has come for ANC... I don't care if they do come into power again - I care about the people of South Africa being harder on them to actually deliver what they said they will.. and that does not mean creating more BEE wealth or changing some Afrikaner street name to some ANC freedom fighter one! We want to see some action now - real change!! Glad to see Shikota finally got the name today – you’re right about the ANC wasting money on the whole name change thing for streets etc too.

Lol Ahh.. about the reference - I take it you're not a Prince fan? Anyway, in the early 90's the singer Prince changed his stage name to an unpronouncable symbol. Because no one could say it everyone started calling him one of Symbol, The Artist, and famously "the Artist formerly known as Prince". Prince did change his stage name back to Prince eventually and is still notorious for filing lawsuits against people using his likeness in any form (on photos, album cover images etc).. hence the reference to branding! I think he's more conscious of protecting his brand and image than Coca-Cola is of theirs!

Dig the new logo too - you had better copyright it there may be a good chance that terror will use it as the real party logo (n prob do quite well with it as well!) Don't really get the reference to the "branding agency headed up by famous superstar" thing though?? is this an inside joke.. explain someone? Funny cartoon!
