Disillusioned by the persistent failure of politicians to deliver on many pre-election promises and crushed under the weight of economic hardship, Hillview inhabitants conclude that they are on the brink of imminent extinction,.

The struggle to occupy important posts in the APE leads to an early break-up of the association into three fractions.
