Not knowing the political leanings of everyone here, can I just say: if there are differences in political opinion, keep 'em polite, please.
That said... MDC policy on sport is this:
SPORT AND RECREATION
The MDC recognizes that the physical well-being of a nation is an importantmfoundation for the health of its people. Sport can also help stimulate our national capacity for the utilization of those skills that are necessary in a growing and complex society. Sport and physical education are an integral part in the maintenance of public health and social integration, playing an important part in uniting the nation.
An imaginative sports policy also has the positive effect of removing barriers based on race, creed, age, gender, religion and political preference. The MDC holds it as an article of faith that all citizens must be afforded an opportunity to take part in
sporting activities of their choice. Consequently, the MDC government will:
- Invest in sports development and the required physical infrastructure.
- Ensure that hitherto underprivileged communities are afforded full opportunity to participate in a wide spectrum of available sporting activities.
- Put in place a new, effective and accountable democratic structures for the management of sport.
- Ensure the full participation of women in all sporting disciplines.
- Strengthen the various national sporting associations while allowing them to function independently of government interference.
- Offer incentives for private-sector funding of sport.
- Establish a National Sports Federation that will manage all international sporting activities including the Olympic and Commonwealth Games.
I've highlighted the bit that might affect ZC - but with the whole election all still up in the air, I wouldn't be counting on anything happening just yet.
