I am also sceptical about the timing of the awards. In 2008 they awarded Hellen Zille, that was a year or months prior to the 2009 national elections. This year they awarded Patricia de Lile, this also came a year prior to 2014 national elections. Is this UK Foundation campaigning for DA ? Why are they awarding this people only towards the elections campaigns.
