This is so exciting. This is the most beautiful democracy in the world. We just need a few more generals and Gukuruhundi heroes and we will be the envy of the world. The billions of dollars of aid will now roll in. ED is a genius. Charlie Tuffs is a hero of the FTLRP and Ian Scoones will become Sir Ian. What a fairytale it has all been. Prince Charles and Boris Johnson will come out and congratulate Zanu on a wonderful job they have done over the last 38 years.
