Yes, I know all this and it is why I suggested it would be a good idea to see what he got up to. |

Van Hoogstraten is a very unpleasant person though genial enough face to face. He lives on the coast in Sussex where he carries on a minor war blocking access to public rights of way. |

History occasionally demonstrates the electorate's euphoria when a undesirable government has been replaced by another less aggressive one. |

I want to know why the Government was sending Zimbabwe millions - and whether they're going to continue to do so :-| |

I am very interested to see when Nicholas van Hoogstraten gets a mention. He has multiple interests in Zimbabwe and I have always wondered if he had some kind of grandiose plan to actually buy the country. |

I think he was a bit of a saviour to Zimbabwe at the time and he had Sally Mugabe to support him but, with her death and the advent of Grace Mugabwe, he lost the plot somewhat. |

In 1980, he was hailed as a saviour. That opinion didn't last too long. |

I know I am not as skilled with the use of Google as i might be but what relevance does the presence of yourself or location of any of your family have on the current situation with Robert Mugabe? |

To think that the country used to be the Bread Basket of Africa. Now they can’t even feed their own people. Seized farms were either broken up & given to Freedom Fighters who didn’t have a clue on modern farming methods, or given to Party Cronies who didn’t even try. |

Well. I listened to all the speech and all I got from the waffle was he would preside over the forthcoming Congress! |

Politicians everywhere have an occupational hazard in that they believe they are indispensable. They also have a pathological unwillingness to admit to making a mistake, let alone to committing a crime. |
