@ByronNicholas @afeuca @AlanWinde666 It's a parody account. But X has rules for parody and this isn't parody.

In a landmark ruling, the City of Cape Town will compensate staff members who feel like they were unfairly coerced into taking the Covid Vaccine to keep their job. Payment will be 1.5 times annual salary, capped at R10m per person. 🧢🇿🇦🍌☠️

@sporrie @AlanWinde666 Parody account. But this isn't parody...we should report it.

@AlanWinde666 What rubbish is this? Why do they need to get paid? Where does the money come from?

@ShanMoff @sipho_siphobots @IsmailAbramjee @Kwena06019336 @IOL @goolamv You only go after someone like this if they pose a serious threat to you... @goolamv must be causing some heat for the dodgy non independent @IOL

@sipho_siphobots @IsmailAbramjee @Kwena06019336 @IOL @goolamv Goolam has not been exposed. It's not him. Anyway. Why go after someone for what they post on twitter.

JUST IN: @IOL has until the close of business today to retract all statements that the X account of @goolamv is that of a KZN lecturer M Y Vawda. Attorney Rupert Candy has warned them if they fail stop do so, an urgent high court application will be launched against them.

@nickhedley @nickhedley adding: I agree with you.. this is a good idea. It's the norm in many countries, including low income countries. It's our future and their present. It's good for the commuter, and the transport owner. But it removes cash, introduces tax and removesities driver graft.

@nickhedley It's been tried before (decade or more back) and from what I understand is the taxi industry wouldn't accept the devices. Cash is king... maybe one ticket for bus and rail but never taxi.

This is actually brilliant

@CapeTown_Bru SAPs need to offer this guy a bigger shirt. Maybe tight budgets mean tight shirts ?

Social Media is in tatters for this. Why did he also have to have such a power name though 🤣

@CMogoeng @BrentLindeque Sadly, Khayelitsha and Nyanga are ANC governed wards, and with national not provincial policing makes it hard for DA to intervene and help.

@BrentLindeque Yes… Is that supposed to actually mean anything! I mean the people of Khayelitsha and Nyanga got the govt they deserve hence they in a murder capital there

I’m actually not sure how to respond to people replying to my tweet that they “WILL” be voting for the ANC and/or EFF. Like, congrats friend… you really will get the government you deserve. ✌🏼

@nickhedley In 4 recent announcements I've tallied 16k jobs: VW warning shots fired, AMSA, Sibanya, Anglo. Maybe pvt sector campaigning against government.. here's hoping..#gatvol

Thousands more jobs to be lost as ArcelorMittal closes Newcastle, Vereeniging operations. South Africa is bleeding jobs because of the electricity, rail and ports crises. news24.com/fin24/companie…

@WandileSihlobo Will ineffective port/rail issues hit agri export as seriously as its hit steel, ore and car manufacturing...I've tallied 16k job losses in only 4 recent announcements linked to inadequate power and transport making for an impossible business environment. AMSA, Sibanya, VW, Anglo

With solid demand out of China, it's like South Africa’s soybean exports could reach a record 600k tonnes this year.

BREAKING: A new report shows that the end may be in sight for AIDS, the world’s deadliest pandemic. The Joint United Nations Program on HIV and AIDS says that Botswana, Eswatini, Rwanda, Tanzania and Zimbabwe have all reached “95-95-95” targets, meaning 95% of the people who are living with HIV know their status, 95% of those people are on lifesaving antiretroviral treatment, and 95% of people in treatment are virally suppressed. Across eastern and southern Africa, new HIV infections have been reduced by 57% since 2010. Also since 2010, the percentage of pregnant and breastfeeding women living with HIV who have access to antiretroviral treatment has nearly doubled, and new infections among children have more than halved. There’s more work to be done, but the UN said the world could end AIDS by 2030 with sufficient investment from global leaders.

@BrentLindeque Do you tweet on threads.... or do you needle a note?

I’m on #Threads… you can follow me by clicking this link: @brentlindeque" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">threads.net/@brentlindeque. Not leaving Twitter. Just adding another SoMe platform to my mix.

@dustinchick POPIA is also a scam. Pay to comply, and it's not implemented.

Can we please publicly name the person who thought “automated consumer announcement” calls were an idea. Karma needs some company. WTAF !

@AnneeErasmus @askash I work in Cape Town and employ 70 people, I've had companies here for 15 years and I've yet to experience lower salaries. I wish. We have to compete with jozi for talent..

@askash As long as salaries are lower and property prices higher, the workforce is unlikely to follow though 🤷🏻‍♀️

Cape Town is no longer just a holiday destination. It’s becoming the business capital of South Africa. They have plans to fix power problems and they experience less blackouts when compared with the rest of the country. International and local interest continues to increase when it comes to property investment in all asset classes: office, industrial and residential. Love the DA or hate them, you can’t deny that their province works.

@BrentLindeque There isn't often ham in a hamburger and so technically handburger would be more inclusive #pronounsmatter

When pronouncing hamburger, do you say:

@ThuliMadonsela3 Confirming you meant 2019 land audit not 1919? If 2019, it's astonishing. But a recent presentation from prior statistician general shows that the whole country is worse off today than 20 years back, and so, how can we reform without black economic growth.

4 years after Sol Plaatje’s death, the 1936 Native Trust & Land Act increased the land share of Africans,who constituted over 80% of the population,to about 13%.Today land ownership by Africans is estimated at 4%, coloureds 15%, Indians/Asians 5% & whites 72% (1919 Land Audit) #1913

110 years ago on June19, the most egregiously racist Natives Land Act,was passed pushing Africans into less than 8% of the land in (labour) reserves causing unimaginable grief over death of children, the frail and livestock plus loss of economic power, community and dignity #1913

This massive pipeline would obliterate rolling blackouts: 66GW of wind & solar projects are in the pipeline in South Africa. Many of the planned projects would be coupled with battery storage. The pipeline also includes some 2 GW of gas-to-power. engineeringnews.co.za/article/renewa…

*Reflections about five common myths about agriculture and land in South Africa.* South Africa’s land reform policy remains highly contested. But, in our view, a number of persistent myths about farmland statistics and the structure of commercial agriculture skew debates. This makes it difficult to reach some common understanding about the realities of land and agriculture in the country. In 1994 when South Africa became a democracy, white farmers owned 77.580 million hectares of farmland out of the total surface area of 122 million hectares. The new government set a target of redistributing 30% of this within five years. This target date has been moved several times and is now 2030. According to popular belief, between 8% and 10% has been redistributed so far. But as we show in the linked article below, this is incorrect as it omits a number of critical statistics. theconversation.com/land-reform-in…

Patience.

Worth a listen!
