@TheChris_Ed92 His great performance resulted in a world cup win.

On a very serious note, I don't get why Rodri was named the best player of the tournament when Messi even played in the final and scoring 12 goals and assists....set favoritism gimmick/nonsense aside Messi was supposed to be Golden ball winner pls

@Leon_Schreib Minister. There is a problem processing appeals. 2.5years now. No response. We are told you can't make any other application if you have a pending appeal.

I am honoured to announce that, in my capacity as Minister of Home Affairs representing the Republic of South Africa, I have signed an historic agreement granting visa free access to our country for Ukranian holders of diplomatic, official and service passports - and vice versa. We continue to see Ukraine as a valued ally, as a valued friend, who supported us right from the beginning, from the days of our struggle against apartheid, right through to now. I look forward to President Ramaphosa adding his signature to this agreement in the coming week, so that we can conclude this important step forward for relations between our two peace-loving nations 🇺🇦🇿🇦

ANC MAKES A FAUSTIAN BARGAIN WITH THE DA, GIVING THE WHITE-LED MINORITY PARTY VETO POWER IN THE INCOMING SO-CALLED GNU On the eve of Cyril Ramaphosa’s inauguration as South Africa’s president for an uncertain second term he’s unlikely to complete; a term certain to be remembered as the lowest moment for the ANC since 1994; the white-led opposition DA is poised to take control of the new coalition government – wrongly called a ‘GNU’ – after the DA effectively secured veto power in the ‘Statement of Intent and Modalities’ pact, a Faustian bargain it signed with the ANC, in which Africa’s oldest liberation movement inexplicably traded everything to benefit Ramaphosa’s standing with white monopoly capital. The DA’s effective veto power in the decision matrix of South Africa’s incoming coalition government is apparent under paragraphs 18 to 23 of the ‘Statement of Intent and Modalities’ pact. Paragraphs 18 to 23 of the pact are about how decisions will be taken or made in the or by the so-called GNU; and they provide as follows: “18. The GNU shall take decisions in accordance with the established practice of consensus. Where no consensus is possible, the principle of sufficient consensus shall apply. 19. Sufficient consensus exists when; 19.1 All parties have had the opportunity to express their views; 19.2 Despite reasonable attempts to resolve disagreements, and find common ground, there is no general consensus; 19.3 Parties to the GNU representing 60% of seats in the National Assembly agree; and 19.4 Any party that disagrees has been able to formally record their objections.” In summary, the ANC/DA coalition government will “take decisions in accordance with the established practice of consensus”, which basically means decisions will be made by general agreement or by unanimous consent. Where such consent or consensus is not achieved, decisions will be made in terms of what the ANC/DA Statement of Intent and Modalities describes as “the principle of sufficient consensus”; which, under paragraph 19.3, means a decision that does not have general consensus or unanimous consent will need or require the support or agreement of political parties in the coalition pact that represent 60% of seats in the National Assembly. ‘Sufficient consensus’ is therefore political parties in the coalition pact that represent 60% of seats in the National Assembly. With the ‘GNU” doors effectively closed for the MK and EFF, there is no way under the sun that the ANC can muster such ‘sufficient consensus’ without the DA. As such, by agreeing to the 60% figure as the threshold of sufficient consensus for taking or making decisions in the ‘GNU’ government, the ANC effectively handed the DA veto power. Ramaphosa’s ‘government’ will not be able to make decisions without the agreement of the DA. Put differently, 'sufficient consensus' is the DA's veto power in the so-called GNU. This means that, effectively, the ANC has handed back power, essentially freedom, to the DA: a white-led minority political party, reminiscent of the white-led minority National Party in the apartheid years. What this means is that the ANC, the first liberation movement to be formed in Africa way back over a century ago in 1912 when Chairman Mao was a schoolboy; and the last on the Continent to reclaim freedom in 1994; has made history yet again as the first liberation movement in Africa to voluntarily hand back power or freedom back to the white minority on a silver platter. Finish and klaar. This is why so many across the progressive world in the global south are genuinely concerned about the unfolding situation in South Africa. It is breathtaking!

@MTshwete True, i think MK overplayed its hand and failed to ride in the wave to consolidate their gains. Tht said, i think it wasnt going to be easy with money and positions nationally being flaunted people to influence them

fair....I think the criticism is around getting a deal across the line to govern KZN...no one can knock the work that has been done to get to 45%

@Mngxitama2 Yaaah. He is finishing them well well!

Ace Magashule down! Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula down! Zizi Kodwa Down! next Paul Mashatile. Ramaphosa is doing the work of Stellenbosch nicely and effectively. He is finishing khongolose finish finish...

The team did a 'rip' disconnection here. They had to remove installation permanently. Asidlali because meter tampering is illegal. #TshwaneYaTima

@bmusonza Even brilliant ideas will fail for these guys. The politics is contaminated. It allows too much chicanery.

@MoyaProf a great leader yet humble. If it was someone else would have been bought by the ANC to begin to fight Zuma. In the end he is the biggest winner. Let's watch and see.

We thank Mr. Khumalo's leadership for registering the Tsunami that has triggered earthquakes in corrupt systems, bringing about positive change. The MK party is abundant with immense talent, a clear indication of divine wisdom at work. The true essese of “Humble yourself and the Lord shall lift you up.” 💚🖤💚 #VoteMK2024

Ramaphosa says that we need R1,6 trillion for infrastructure investment. In 2018, when he became president, national debt stood at R2,2 trillion. Now 6 years later, national debt has increased to R5 trillion. The question he must answer is what has he done with the R2,8 trillion of debt he accumulated since becoming president. In the 9 years of his presidency, Zuma accumulated national debt of R1,6 trillion, most of which funded the 2010 infrastructure prospects and new power stations at inflated cost. With Ramaphosa it was R2,8 trillion in 6 years. Where did the money go because we are sitting with dilapidated water infrastructure, collapsing road networks and no electricity? Public Works budget for infrastructure investment between 2018 and 2023 increased from R11 billion to about R14 billion. Where did the R2,8 trillion go?
