This is not an awards show. These are public SERVANTS at a business meeting. They should be ashamed of behaving this way and of the media reporting on it!!!

150% to Premier Helen Zille for her style, elegance and poise. Thanks goodness someone know how to choose an outfit that suits her body! The rest of the "ontploffings" can keep their outfits for the July Handicap. That would keep the horses amused.

As long as everyone had a good time, nice to see people succeed in their careers when times are so tough, i guess some people don't like to see the enjoyment and success of others...

De Lille was the best dressed. She put on business suit for a business meeting. Female politicians are not ministerial wives and they dress accordingly. You don't see male politicians prancing about to these gatherings with poncy suits...sometimes at leasr...Sheesh. Business suit for a business meeting.
