Zimbabwe opposition retains gains

[Sweetpea]

Zimbabwe's electoral commission has released seven more results from a partial recount of last month's parliamentary elections.
None of the original results were overturned, making it difficult for the ruling Zanu-PF party to overturn an opposition majority in the lower house.
Ten remain to be declared - all in opposition-held seats - and Zanu-PF now needs to win nine to regain control.
Results have still not been released from the parallel presidential poll. The failure to do so, four weeks on from the vote, is causing mounting concern internationally.

10 still to be declared and Mugabe only needs 9.
How many will be brave enough to risk a beating or death in order to take there seats in parliament if the opposition do get declared winners?

Its a shame Zimbabwe didn't have large reserves of oil, then it would be a different tune.

Zimbabwe remains a land rich in resources, high value resources.
Diamonds and gold
The tragedy is (putting on my pro african hat) that if the west doesn't get first shares, they take their ball back.
Plus the chief crop used to be Tobaco

Oh and I thought those nasty Brits sucked the place dry before fleeing back home with the booty.
