Hatton is taliking alot of crap she serves her boss Helen Zille very well. I was there and watch how the Law enforcement first became violent, tell her to get out her comfort zone and to come and see how the people live in Mitchells plain. she is that typicall white NAtionalist who will help helen Zille to keep Cape Town for the white people.
