I need to put on my big girl panties and keep going: Phalatse

Sunday Times Politics Weekly

Recent political events in coalition-run municipalities have cast doubt on the viability of such governments. A prime example is Johannesburg, whose mayor Mpho Phalatse and speaker Vasco da Gama were removed last month after no-confidence motions.
Phalatse was ousted by an ANC-led coalition that included the EFF and Patriotic Alliance (PA).
Sunday Times Politics Weekly hosts the mayor, who has since been reinstated and says she still believes in coalitions, but that the ANC bloc is focused on corruption.
On the possibility of being voted out again, Phalatse says anything is possible in politics, but tough as it may be, she is not bowing out of it.
