Social media's hilarious response to secret ballot
Looking for a pick me up?
Well you're likely to find it on social media.
The internet is littered with endless memes, gifs and conspiracies following Speaker Baleka Mbete's decision to grant a secret ballot during the motion of no confidence in President Jacob Zuma tomorrow.
Opposition parties have been calling for the motion to be voted on in secret to allow ANC MPs to vote without fear of intimidation.

But tweeps, for the most part, believe the decision will have little impact on the result of the vote.
Here are some of the best Twitter responses.
