#FirstThingsFirst - Minister Dean Macpherson deserves love too

On the X app, a screenshot of Minister of Public Works Dean Macpherson’s Tinder profile has gone viral. In the pic, the blonde and blue-eyed minister is seen enjoying a glass of beer at a bar. According to his profile, Macpherson is listed as a 37-year-old gay man who splits his time between Durban and Cape Town. His likes include food, sunsets and walks on the beach. The photo was shared by other politicians like EFF Leader Julius Malema and ANC NEC member Tony Yengeni, with some shaming Macpherson. The team discussed the hypocrisy associated with behaviours of senior government officials. They asked, what kind of behaviour and decorum is fitting of someone who holds a position in parliament?
