DA statement on resignations (October 24, issued by Helen Zille):
On Wednesday, the Democratic Alliance (DA) Federal Executive (FedEx) was informed of the personal decision of its Federal Leader, Mmusi Maimane, and Federal Chairperson, Athol Trollip to resign from their positions.
As the DA, we would like to thank Mr Maimane and Mr Trollip for their service to the Party and the country.
The DA is in the business of ensuring that the Democratic Project is not derailed by either internal or external issues. We can waste no time in working for an inclusive, prosperous democracy. To this end, strong and stable leadership in the DA is essential.
The FedEx was convened on Thursday morning to study a legal opinion by the DA Federal Legal Commission on the steps required to fill the leadership vacancies in a way that does not undermine the Federal Constitution and does not negatively affect the political operations of the DA.
The FLC is empowered to, inter alia, interpret the Federal Constitution.
In terms of the Federal Constitution, the Federal Leader is deputised by the Federal Chairperson, but the Federal Constitution is silent on the current situation where both positions have become vacant simultaneously.
On the advice of the FLC, the following steps will be followed –
– The Federal Council (FedCo) will be convened as soon as practically possible;
– FedCo will elect to elect an Interim Federal Leader and an Interim Federal Chairperson;
– A Federal Congress will be convened as soon as practically possible, with a provisional target of April 2020
The DA’s political and operational structures have already began the work of giving effect to these steps, and want to reassure DA members, voters and South Africans at large that the DA will continue its work of effective and constructive opposition, and where were are in government, in the Western Cape, Gauteng, Eastern Cape and Limpopo, we will continue to improve the quality of governance.
The FedEx has also noted the developments of the Parliamentary Caucus, the decisions and actions of which will be communicated by the Interim Parliamentary Caucus Leadership.
We would like to thank our members and supporters for standing by us during this difficult period.
We remain committed to our values of Freedom, Fairness, Opportunity and Diversity.
Breast cancer affects both women and men, yet there’s a popular misconception that this type of cancer is a women’s issue. Now, a new study shows that men with breast cancer are more likely to die than their female counterparts, across all stages of the disease.
Even more concerning, the study indicates, is that this disparity persists even when clinical characteristics, such as cancer types, treatment, and access to care are considered.
The study was carried out by Vanderbilt researchers and published in JAMA Oncology. It looked at a 11-year registry of data from January 2004 to December 2014.
The cohort consisted of 16 025 male and 1.8 million female patients with breast cancer in the US. The five-year mortality rate for the male patients was 19% higher than their female counterparts.
Possible reasons
The following reasons may be responsible for the lower overall survival rates, the study’s senior author and associate director for Global Health and co-leader of the Cancer Epidemiology Research Program at Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center, Xiao-Ou Shu, said:
Distinct cancer biology
Less effective treatment
Men not being compliant with hormonal treatment
Unhealthy lifestyles among men, including smoking, alcohol consumption, physical inactivity and obesity
Shu also pointed out that additional studies are needed to identify the causes, but that it would require international consortia, considering male breast cancer is so rare and accounts for less than 1% of breast cancer cases.
“It is so rare, it would be extremely difficult for any single institute to recruit a sufficient number of patients for research,” said Shu.
About 85% of male breast cancer is ER-positive, a proportion that is higher than female breast cancer patients (75%).
“That is a cancer type where patients usually fare better because we have a hormonal treatment,” Shu said, concluding by stressing the importance of conducting more studies that are specifically focused on male breast cancer.
Shu explained that in theory, men should have better outcomes and lower mortality than women if the treatment is equally effective.
“The question is whether there are some other biological differences between ER-positive male breast and ER-positive female breast cancer. We don’t know,” Shu commented.
Breast cancer in men is often ignored
According to the Breast Health Foundation, in South Africa, 1–3% of all breast cancers happen in men and it seems to be on the rise for men who work on electrical lines. Factors such as radiation, X-rays and electromagnetic waves have also been implicated in incidents, notes the foundation.
Since breast cancer in men is so rare, it often goes undiagnosed as men are less likely to go for screenings. But ignorance is a killer and there needs to be more awareness around this, and men need to do self-checks too. Most men don’t go to the doctor until they develop severe symptoms such as bleeding from the nipple, at which point the cancer might already have spread.
“The most common sign of breast cancer in men is a firm, non-painful mass located just below the nipple,” says CANSA to Men’s Health South Africa.
The symptoms are similar to those of women, and treatment too, although men may have more of their breast tissue removed as their cancer is usually nearer the chest wall. You can perform a simple self-exam by looking out for:

Four Springbok fans in Japan have accepted Gauteng Education MEC Panyaza Lesufi’s apology after he incorrectly accused one of them of wearing an old South African flag at the Rugby World Cup semi-final against Wales over the weekend.
And the men want South Africans to unite, not to be divided, as South Africa gears up to face England in the final on Saturday.
“We don’t want to make any negative waves and it was obviously a misunderstanding,” Neels Swanepoel told News24 on behalf of the group on Monday.
“We want the whole nation to unite behind the flag and behind the boys. The apology is obviously accepted and let’s just all move on.”
Swanepoel said they never expected to be in the news.
While happy to share their photos from the trip, he asked that the other three men not be named so the story did not become all about them.

The four, who also witnessed the semi-final live against Japan, call themselves the “Faf Squad” or the “Four Fafs” and have attended games with their green and gold attire, blonde wigs and flags.
“It’s just a show of solidarity to the Springboks in general and to little Faf de Klerk. He’s our man,” chuckled Swanepoel, speaking as they tried to navigate their way across the Japanese countryside in the dark.
“Not one of us have a physical profile of a scrummy – just call us a bunch of out of shape Fafs.”
Lesufi had incorrectly said they were carrying the old flag. He tweeted a screenshot of them, saying: “That flag, unfortunately is spoiling it! This team @Springboks belongs to all of us. Let’s avoid hurting each other unnecessarily. #StrongerTogether.”
Many people were confused because one of the men was actually donning the new South African flag. The red and white colours were visible below his waist, while the black, yellow and green colours were draped over his left shoulder.
“It’s a brand new flag out of the bag so we’re really sorry that the red bit could have looked orange to somebody,” said Swanepoel.
“It was obviously completely unintentional.”
Lesufi apologised on Sunday evening.
He tweeted: “Sincere apologies fellow South Africans [.] the initial angle was completely wrong! Let’s celebrate the team’s win @Springboks Forward with social cohesion. We are better together than divided! Apartheid flag divides South African flag unites! Slaan hulle die volgende week!”

The men said their trip for work and pleasure had been quite an adventure.
“Obviously there is the rugby on the one hand but the Japanese people have been absolutely incredible and the country and hospitality are amazing,” said Swanepoel.
“As is being able to support to support our Captain [Siya] Kolisi and his brave warriors, as the Japanese call the Boks.”
They will be cheering for the country in the stands for the final and are crossing fingers that South Africa [will] bring the cup home.
“It’s not going to be easy but we are sure the guys will give their best. With a coach like Rassie [Erasmus] and a captain like Siya and all the other boys, it’s the best chance to hope for a win.”
The Springboks will face off against England on Saturday at 11:00 local time, in their bid to bring home the Webb Ellis Cup.
