# Schadenfreude
It is with some pleasure, therefore, that I read about the rampant discontent and ire that ole Patricia has earned from her party after the mayorial fiasco in Cape Town (for example, here, here and here).
I guess the ID's measly 10% of the vote was from people who were voting for an opposition party, not a Personality Cult, after all. Or perhaps, after finally being put to the test and not just being a niche noise maker, De Lille let some of her true character shine through. Either way, it's satisfying to see a politician get their come-uppance - pity it doesn't happen more often.
