ANC Outburst

Following a comment by Fisher to Malema ("You live in Sandton."), Malema spoke:
Malema: Let me tell you before you are tjatjarag (South African slang: excitable, or, to speak a lot) – this is a building of a revolutionary party and you know nothing about the revolution. So here you behave or else you jump (audience laughs). Don’t laugh. Chief, can you get security to remove this THING here. If you are not going to behave, we are going to get security to take you out. This is not a news room this, this is a revolutionary house and you don’t come here with that white tendency, not here. You can do it somewhere else, not here. If you have got a tendency of undermining blacks even where you work, you are in the wrong place. Here you are in the wrong place.

Fisher: ...that’s rubbish...

Malema: You can go out…rubbish is what you have covered in that trouser – that is rubbish. That which you have covered in [your] clothes is rubbish, ok? You are a small boy you can’t do anything. Go out…bastard! Go out! You bloody agent!
