Dragging on a bit. Maybe they can't afford to pay the ZEC workers.

President Robert Mugabe's party lost control of Zimbabwe's Parliament on Wednesday and the opposition said that he had been defeated for the first time in a presidential poll.

Official results, which have trickled out slowly since Saturday's election, showed that Mugabe's ruling Zanu-PF could not outvote the combined opposition seats in Parliament. Official figures said the mainstream Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) had taken 105 seats, a breakaway faction 9 and an independent one in the 210-seat Parliament.

Mugabe's Zanu-PF has so far taken 94.

South African President Thabo Mbeki said on Saturday there was "no crisis" in Zimbabwe after holding his first face-to-face talks with Robert Mugabe since the country's disputed March 29 elections.

Yeah, it's all made up, just like AIDS.

If you're suggesting he imprison and torture Boris Johnson and his supporters, I'd be down with that.

'The future of the world can only be multi-polar otherwise the world system would not be sustainable, and Africa is one of the pillars of the evolving world system.

"Russia will always be with Africa and today we got a confirmation from President Mugabe, a legend, an historical figure, that Zimbabwe and Africa will always be with Russia,” enthused the Russian Foreign minister

Thought he was dead, what a disappointment.

Thought he was dead, too, bummer. Is he the highest denomination unit of overinflated currency?

Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 17 December 2016 22:20 (seven years ago) link

The new of the day, suit aside, is that he'll contest the 2018 election at the age of 94.

he is pretty good at not getting overthrown and evading the grim reaper so far, so looking like a complete cunt is quite low on his list of concerns. Lol that blazer was surely designed by some 1st year textiles student or something.

this skirt is pretty neat, especially as Comrade Bob looks like he's re-enacting the "old man yells at cloud" picture

He is also incredibly fastidious about clothing. Men may not enter a Zimbabwe court or the public gallery of parliament without a shirt, tie and jacket. When some argued that African country MPs and spectators should at least be allowed to wear African clothes, such as robes and jellabahs, a minor concession was made - safari suits are now allowed. "There is no mix and match around Bob," says one former colleague. "Everything has to be ironed flat, sharp, coordinated and very conservative."

this is from a Gary Younge article published in 2001, so I guess he's loosened up a bit in recent years? (a is still wearing a shirt, tie and jacket though, I suppose)

I remember reading somewhere that when the Blair govt banned him from travelling to the UK he was particularly upset about no longer being able to shop at Savile Row

huh, goes by the name of Bob
