@Tonyvanminn @brettherron Why must the money come from citizens when the DA gets enough money from national government

@brettherron You do live in one of the most expensive and desirable areas in the Metro. We must all pay our share to help the underprivileged. Strange that I have to remind you of your civic duty after all you preach.

Property owners need to check the 2025 valuations and the estimated property rates on the City of Cape Town website. The City’s valuation increases my house by 33% (over the 3 years between the 2022 & 2025 valuations). My property rates are estimated to go up 30%. This is not fair or affordable.

@singer12668 @brettherron In Tswane the rates were already low so doubling it makes sense. The salaries are also much higher there than in Cape Town so you cannot compare. Also Cape Town does not get good service delivery, it is only Camps Bay that does

@brettherron Under ASA in Tshwane in July 2025 most of ours were doubled. At least in your area there is significant maintenance and growth. We have nothing.

@ish18_e @brettherron Why must the money come from people's houses wheb the DA has Billions which they keep returning to National government? Don't be stupid to justify the DA exploiting citizens

Aren't you always complaining that not enough is being done in poor areas? Surely you are happy to contribute ? The 2025/26 MTREF (Medium-Term Revenue and Expenditure Framework) emphasizes pro-poor spend, with billions allocated across housing (R3.5 billion over three years), informal settlements (R3.4 billion), and related services.

@Buyile311214 @GaytonMcK Stop playing victim

@GaytonMcK No one asked you. Deep down in your heart you are celebrating

Dear Media I will not be giving any comment regarding the sentencing of Mr Malema except to pray for him and his family. Prison is tougher on families. I don’t celebrate when tragedy befall people even my enemies. Thanks

@naseemak27 @kaymsibi @geordinhl @CityofCT @Our_DA @WesternCapeDA @DAGauteng DA already takes credit for Table mountain

@kaymsibi @geordinhl @CityofCT @Our_DA @WesternCapeDA @DAGauteng So frustrating. Soon DA will take credit for the sun, moon and stars. It's crazy.

Cape Town delivers the most homes in SA! 💙🇿🇦 These families are now homeowners and can build generational wealth. 👏 We're fixing the injustices of the past with ACTION ✅

@Craigb1021 @geordinhl @LaureenBertin @CityofCT @Our_DA @WesternCapeDA @DAGauteng Thats the point. They don't want us to build generational wealth.

@geordinhl @LaureenBertin @CityofCT @Our_DA @WesternCapeDA @DAGauteng How the hell can they build generational wealth when those of us who paid for our own homes won't be able to because of CoCT huge proposed rates increases? Or are our rates paying for theirs as well?

@sinistralillian @brettherron If rates and water increases by 20% each year while salaries increase by 3% then employment is definitely a bad measure

@brettherron Hi Brett - which period is this? I want to check b/c I'm doing research/story on food insecurity and using employment as a potential correlation with food insecurity.

This is important. The Western Cape reduced its unemployment rate but increased its food insecurity rate over the same period. We’re creating the working hungry. We need a formal food programme. Relying on charities & neighbourhood food programmes is shirking. Also doesn’t meet constitutional mandate

@geordinhl You are a a mini Trump you false piece of shit

We love the freedom loving people of Iran and hope they can one day live in a constitutional democracy with civil rights, like we do.

@Isak_Nieuwton @brettherron @geordinhl Stop talking rubbish. The USA and Israel bombed those people

@brettherron @geordinhl Dude, Iran killed 30k plus people who protested for freedom.

@alanwinde You fuckers create the crime

This unspeakably terrible violence plaguing communities must be condemned in strongest terms. We will support law enforcement to bring down these evil thugs - starting with resourcing SAPS in WC, overhauling criminal justice system, and giving provinces more say over policing.

@geordinhl @CityofCT @ZahidBadroodien @helenzille @Our_DA @WesternCapeDA @DAGauteng The shit is running down the streets of Cape Town asshole

It's heartbreaking to see how Joburg's infrastructure collapse is hurting so many South Africans. 💔 While in Cape Town we're working across Khayelitsha, Milnerton, Macassar and the Cape Flats to upgrade our sewer systems and Wastewater Treatment Works for more dignified sanitation in communities ✅

@kiddfromSouthAh @geordinhl @CityofCT @ZahidBadroodien @helenzille @Our_DA @WesternCapeDA @DAGauteng Exactly and Cape Town education system has gone to shit

@geordinhl @CityofCT @ZahidBadroodien @helenzille @Our_DA @WesternCapeDA @DAGauteng This guy is worried about Joburgs water meanwhile unemployment and crime is sky rocketing in Cape Town.

@geordinhl DA took R2 BILLION away from the Health budget

The President wrote a defence of NHI, and I’ve responded. Please take a few minutes to read my reply. NHI will remove all medical aids, and offers no guarantee of improved care for poorer South Africans. ❌ Why destroy what works without fixing what doesn’t work? 📲 Full article: news24.com/business/opini…

@geordinhl @Our_DA Lol so you lost

Thank you to the residents of Dunoon for your growing faith in the DA. 💙 We’ve worked incredibly hard to improve living conditions and services in Dunoon, and residents are clearly seeing the effort. 👏 We’ve more than doubled our support in Dunoon, both in real votes and in percentage. From 367 votes to 796 votes, and from 7,56% to 15,93% ✅

@Frikkieveldmuis @GaytonMcK @OnsBaizaNie Shut up and stop being negative

@GaytonMcK @OnsBaizaNie Jy is nie n koning nie, julle sal govern en serve. Dis die issue, all julle politicians dink julle is verhewe bo die res van ons. Tsek man.

We shall rule the whole of the Western Cape, we shall defeat you with your pet media. Well done Patriots @OnsBaizaNie

@AwkwardTad @GaytonMcK @OnsBaizaNie Whovl is the DA serving

@GaytonMcK @OnsBaizaNie “We shall rule”? How about “we shall serve”?

@geordinhl @CityofCT Abide by the laws of the nation and stop trying to create an Apartheid state

🇿🇦👏 Cape Town stands strong against national government's attempts to centralise power. Our dispute against the District Development Model (DDM) has succeeded. SA's municipalities would have had their plans “approved” by the national govt, undermining the constitutional power of local governments. ❌ Thanks to constructive engagement with COGTA Minister, Velenkosini Hlabisa, those problematic clauses are now completely removed. This protects Cape Town's right to pursue our own policies, plan independently and deliver for residents. ✅

@Mikedotcoza Agreed, this is pathetic

Desperate times calls for desperate measures.

@geordinhl You dumbass. Bloomberg funds the DA so of course it will create fake awards for your PR profile

🇿🇦 Excited to announce that Cape Town has been named as a winning city in the Bloomberg 'Mayor’s Challenge' 2025, with a prize of $1 million! 🎉 We will use this prize money to fund a project we’re running with residents to co-design better waste management in low income communities, to reduce litter and dumping.

@CalebSm27059829 @brettherron @Our_DA Dont be stupid. It should be used for public good and not sold to private companies

@brettherron @Our_DA @CityofCT Hypothetically. If the new owners built a mixed use development that would alleviate the housing crisis and provide jobs to construction workers and corporates who occupy a part of the building. And lets say the city used the money to build more housing would you still complain?

The @Our_DA run @CityofCT just sold the iconic Good Hope Centre for R135 million. Part of the 53 properties they auctioned off today as the DA raids the family silver - except the silver doesn’t belong to them. It’s an absolute disgrace. These public assets belong to the people. @geordinhl must decide if he’s a public servant or a property trader. If he’s a property trader he should trade with his own properties and not the peoples’! Bargain basement price!
