A move to right! a cozy relationship with Britain, a rebuilding of relations with IMF and World bank, paying compensations to former British farmers, a canceling of efforts toward 51% Zimbabwe ownership of firms, mines and factories in Zimbabwe and most certainly a move away from anything close to socialism. The youth and student movement that you helped build were to the left of ZANU-PF, now we find you championing a movement that will satisfy the former colonial powers and take Zimbabwe backwards. Have you abandoned socialism? Briggs;

The 60% only reflected tallies from the MDC stronghold Harare as reported by Briles of the BBC. Zimbabwe want a clear winner but can not afford this type of irresponsible juornalism. We can wait a day for the results.
