@MrJLabuschagne @DereleenJ @helenzille She needs to accept that she have to learn, and not continue to give into the temptation of performative politics. I sincerely hope she learns that lesson fast .. she has heart, it goes a long way.

Exactly why @helenzille is in Johannesburg, to swim freely without diving bullets of the Cape Flats.
Ryan Cummings@Pol_Sec_Analyst
After swimming in a Johannesburg pothole, Zille should go play a game of cops and robbers on the Cape Flats

@VusiSambo The integrity commission will be the end of them. They may even be forced to use 4-star hotels on their next Dubai trip.
I am not sure we should be this cruel.

@MrJLabuschagne We up the ante & frogmarch them to appear before the revered ANC Integrity Commission, & the are toast🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Some lunatic grouping called Forum for South Africa says His Excellency, President Cyril Ramaphosa must no longer appoint convicted criminals to serve in his bloated GNU cabinet.
This rubbish demand is inconsistent with Section 91(2) of our Constitution, which explicitly states that President Cyril Ramaphosa can appoint whomever he chooses as a Cabinet Minister, & he doesn’t have to explain himself to anyone for it (except to the ANC Deployment Committee)🙄
eNCA@eNCA
The Forum for South Africa (FOSA) has called on President Cyril Ramaphosa to fire Sports, Arts and Culture Minister Gayton McKenzie. The call comes after convicted fraudster Jermaine Prim, alleged the the Patriotic Alliance leader, and some of his party members are proxies for drug cartel. enca.com/news-top-stori…

Honourable MP, maybe as a general rule, but the Cape Flats carry a completely different history and context with gangs.
Apartheid forced removals shattered communities, concentrated poverty, and created deep-rooted gang structures tied to drugs that persist for generations.
In this case, no amount of service delivery can change the space without proper policing and enforcement from SAPS.
Cape Flats precincts like Mfuleni and Nyanga consistently top the national murder stats, mostly gang-related. All spheres of government need to work together.
That’s why we need the army now and not to give them better fibre.
English
@MrJLabuschagne @helenzille And you know very well that heightened crime rates are as a result on BLATANT SERVICE DELIVERED NEGLECT.
English
I have hope that she's not just another keyboard warrior or 'Facebook politician'.
I'm a firm believer that South Africa needs strong, effective leaders across all parties, not blind loyalty to colours or brands. As voters, we must hold every politician accountable, whether they have your X or not.
We can't afford cheap shots when communities are literally bleeding and dying.
English
@MrJLabuschagne @DereleenJ @helenzille I don’t think she knows that .. you give her too much credit.
English
@AardvarkBloody A+ easy. She even gatekept the comment section. PR goat loading...

Trough audition

The ANC deserves thanks for lowering the fuel levies.
English
@VusiSambo We are not the same as them.
They feel no impact in their sponsored cars, houses, security paid for by those they don’t understand.
English
“The [R11.67 per litre] increase in paraffin prices does not signal any reduction in government support for vulnerable households.”
Which nuanced figure of speech is this? A paradox, a contradiction or an oxymoron??
GIF
Department of Mineral and Petroleum Resources @DMPR_ZA
In South Africa, the pricing structure of illuminating paraffin is specifically designed to provide relief to consumers. Unlike petrol and diesel, paraffin does not include fuel levies and most taxes, as a deliberate policy measure to keep it as affordable as possible, given its importance to low-income households. As a result, reductions in fuel levies cannot be applied to offset increases in paraffin prices. The increase in paraffin prices does not signal any reduction in government support for vulnerable households. As indicated in the earlier statement, work is underway to develop targeted measures to cushion the poor from the impact of high energy costs. These efforts form part of a broader commitment to mitigate the effects of rising living expenses. Government remains firmly committed to protecting vulnerable households and continues to implement both immediate relief interventions and longer-term measures aimed at improving energy affordability and ensuring security of supply for all.
English
Not good enough.
People are dying in the Cape Flats while we hear about the systemic corruption at SAPS. Kids have to cross rivers and survive pit toilets whilst the former failed minister of basic education lives it up in parliament as our country's defence leader. People are starving while Mbalula takes R600k vacations to Dubai whilst selling out his country.
Your fancy words are just that, words. Your complacent attitude of ‘maybe they will get better, just wait’ makes you a complicit partner in the daily struggle of millions of South Africans who have been promised the moon and the stars for 20 years, while all they got was depression, poverty and continued disappointment as the elite live it up laughing at them.
Not good enough.
English
@MrJLabuschagne @Sakeliga The USA as the biggest campion of democracy has corruption.
The path of addressing the past, is not easy, but it will be on the terms of a black lead government.
Our democracy is maturing so will it's leaders and voters.
English
No, it requires:
1. Corrupt hands out of state coffers.
2. Competence in public positions.
3. Functional service delivery so our cities do not fall apart.
4. Empowering policies that enable entrepreneurs to build.
5. Scrapping of any policy that determines who can work where based on anything other than merit.
6. Our education system restored after years of incompetence and corruption so future generations learn about AI and robotics, not indoctrinated with struggle songs and alcoholic teachers.
7. Sound-minded citizens to stop voting out of loyalty to ‘struggle icons’ who build nothing but lists of broken promises.
8. The NPA to prosecute politically connected criminals without fear or favour and return the stolen money the ANC has siphoned out of this country via couches and private planes.
English
@MrJLabuschagne @Sakeliga That requires land and economic transformation
or
A change in how monetary institutions and policies engage with South Africa, understanding its current land and economic reality.
The country needs to bring more people into the formal market.
English
@VusiSambo Forget about formalising charges. We hand them over to the ANC NEC. I hear they never give second, third, fourth or fifth chances.. Ask Senzo Mchuno.
English
@MrJLabuschagne They must be locked away all at once. The GNU of the ANC & the DA will formulate charges later😅😅
English
@MrJLabuschagne A bandaid solution to a structural problem.
Easy flowers for ActionSA😤
English
Insourcing makes a ton of financial sense in this regard. Kudos to this💪🏽
My only concern is that this might destabilise the strong & united ActionSA-ANC-led coalition in Tshwane. Granted, the Tshwane Deputy Mayor who is the ANC Tshwane Chair— & his Tshwane ANC treasurer, were reportedly eating nicely from water trucking even though they don’t even own a single water truck between the two of them.
R31.7 million is the figure reported by the nosy Sunday Times the other week (for the 2025 FY).
Michael Beaumont@ME_Beaumont
The tendepreneurs are having their taps turned off! In Tshwane, 15 water tankers have been added to the city’s fleet as it moves away from the outsourcing model which has seen the connected get rich.

"Many people have forgotten that in 2015/2016 the ANC-led South African government sold over 10 million barrels of the country’s strategic oil reserves and got ripped off in the process." #Oilgate
Conscious Caracal 🇿🇦@ConCaracal
With South Africa facing massive fuel price hikes this week, AfriForum investigates the status of the country’s strategic fuel reserves: artikels.afriforum.co.za/en/afriforum-i…

That's a good start Michael. How about putting up th einfrastructure to make all these redundant though?

@Who_flungdung Proudly sponsored by the one and only ANC.
Amandla! ✊🏼

Still terrified of AfriForum's private prosecution unit hot on his tail, Mbalula caves to AfriForum's pressure and asks his ANC colleague Godongwana to lower the fuel levy. 😉
ANC SECRETARY GENERAL | Fikile Mbalula@MbalulaFikile
We welcome the ANC led governments intervention with regards to the rising fuel costs because of the war in the Middle East. By cutting the fuel levy by R3 it will buffer the citizens from rising fuel and food prices. This is what a government that cares and is responsive to the needs of the people does. We welcome this swift response. #ANCatWORK #TheYearOfDecisiveAction

It was fixed. The fix. Taking us all for a gat.
Executive Mayor of the City Of Joburg@DadaMorero
This was fixed on Sunday Sisi Helen. Please also make use of our service delivery app to report burst pipes.

Serious question for people who back into parking spaces - what’s the point?
English
Calling out the obvious isn't loud melodrama or a weak argument, it's pattern recognition after decades of the same leadership failing South Africans.
Ramaphosa's defiant "we won't be bullied" posturing (while quietly backtracking on the US pressure claims) isn't strengthening our position, it's isolating us further and hurting the poorest who rely on trade, investment, and stability.
If you cannot see that, you are either blind or complicit.
English
@MrJLabuschagne @sowelleconomics Calling out BS is fine, just don’t confuse your constitutional right with a constitutional insight. Loud exits don’t make weak arguments stronger
English
The ANC is taking the country down with them on their way out. We can't allow this to happen.
