A woman in #SaudiArabia has been sentenced to 11 YEARS for #Terrorism as a result of her campaign for #HumanRightsForWomen on Social Media! I'm just putting this out there ...
So #MapisaNqakula's 'Special Leave' is yet ANOTHER example of her imperious, unilateral actions, since this option does not exist for her in the position of #SpeakerOfParliament: It is for #Parliament, to whom she reports, to take decisions in this regard!!
#Ramaphosa carefully doesn't say by which century #Loadshedding will end, so....
Man sprays bottle of champagne up women’s skirt. Should this be classed as assault?
Just read an article which claims that #Zuma is a well-renumerated agent for the Kremlin & has been for a long time - receiving his orders on his trips to Russia for 'medical' reasons - check it out on nationalsecuritynews.com
#ANCCadreDeployment continues unabated - this time in the #Limpopo #SocialDevelopmentDept! But it is doubtless continuing EVERYWHERE the #ANC governs, it's just that there are not enough whistleblowers reporting it!!
That's because women are LITERALLY the ones left holding baby, after the man who has impregnated them has long since disappeared! Women are therefore the only ones punished although the father of the baby had already abandoned them both & is AS GUILTY as the mother!!
#Ramaphosa recently told SAfns to stop 'badmouthing' SA & to emulate the Chinese in being patriotic & always praising their country! He seems not to understand that #China is a dictatorship & that public criticism on a global platform would NOT end well for the critic!!
SA's celebration week is well & truly over & reality bites once again! The highly-paid #VIPProtectionOfficers 'protecting' the #TransportMinister were robbed of their firearms & are receiving counselling! The #ANCGovt will now probably double the security detail of politicians!!
I hope people are taking note of the fact that SA's recent wins in sport & other fields are due to the talent, dedication & hard work of SAfns themselves, DESPITE the useless #ANCGovt! Imagine what we could do if we had a Govt which does what it's SUPPOSED to do with our taxes!!
The #ANCGovt not only wants to use SATaxpayers hard-earned money to donate R50m to its political ally #Cuba, but is wasting yet MORE public funds on appealing #Afriforum's legal challenge stopping this waste of money on behalf of SA's poor!!
Thanks to #Afriforum & its legal challenges, the #ANCGovt has been stopped from donating R50m to its ideological ally #Cuba! It's because of the incompetence & corruption of the #ANC's deployed cadres that poverty is widespread in the 1st place but they want to help Cuba instead!
Those waiting for the #ANCGovt to act over the steep fuel price increases which are battering SAfns, will wait in vain! They ONLY know how to help themselves to public funds - & where will they get more if they start lowering the fuel price?! Ain't gonna happen!!
#SwellendamRiots: More Violent Entitlement from some of the residents in the informal settlement, angry because they (like the rest of SA), must first APPLY for & be eligible for the #IndigentGrant before they get it! The flames are being fanned by those who are blaming the #DA!!

Nobody burnt a flag. It’s a metaphor for the state of our country! We must be careful not to become grievance merchants! It debases and reduces our level of engagement with real issues as a Country. We have the worst crime, education and unemployment. Where is the outrage?
The usual ANC apologists kraaiing about the DA showing a burning flag in an election ad, as if the ANC doesn’t wipe their filthy thieving asses on the flag every second of every day. Please spare us the pearl clutching.
I really don't care about an ad that displays a burning flag. I'm more concerned about the current government literally burning the country to the ground

Scrap BEE.
At long last BEE is facing the consequences of what it is…an extractive, greedy vehicle for those who add no value to the mother company….and when cut loose, it’s pure Karma ( with the wailing and gnashing of teeth) 😆

The City Press is leading with a story that Mkhonto WeSizwe Party has been accused of forging signatures to qualify for the elections. The claim comes from a former senior official Lennox Ntsodo who claims he appointed a team of 20 to assist with mass forgery of signatures.
