Their names and faces can be published once they appear in court. I hope it ends up in life sentences, no parole. Child sexual exploitation ought to carry the heaviest penalty.

Not playing … what happened to the role models? Playwright Richard Calland describes the main character “Uncle” as being a Mac Maharaj-like figure with other ANC-types thrown into the mix. mg.co.za/friday/2024-04…
Columnist Calland captures state capture for stage: A new play by a new playwright explores shenanigans in South Africa’s politics. mg.co.za/friday/2024-04…
The best thing about losing weight has been all the extra clothes I now have. My husband’s clothes, that is. His jackets, mostly. Today we wear his very cool leather jacket. So comfy. (It’s the lift that’s dusty leave me alone) (He doesn’t know I’m wearing it, don’t snitch)
Ango Happy Sindane lo? Uyena!
Okay great. Are there any other crimes you will be emulating? I hear highkacking is very popular. So is housebreaking.

Is it no longer illegal to block roads? Any party can go and block a road and it’s fine? What say the political party that runs said province? It is now totally fine for parties to block roads to campaign? Also, what say it about secession, not the referendum, secession?

If Jacob Zuma had not fallen out with the ANC and MK didn’t exist, would the ANC have brought him out to campaign for them? 🤔
Yeah, OK, but are we sure it isn’t, at the very least, the end of October? It doesn’t feel like it’s still April.
3/ Cederberg ward 3, Western Cape Cederberg Eerste 39% (+4) PA 36% (+30) ANC 23% (-17) DA (10%) didn't contest and its vote clearly went to Cederberg Eerste. Big PA surge in the portion of the ward with more coloured voters. This could be one of the key trends of the election
2/ Oudtshoorn ward 9, Western Cape (Dysseldorp) PA 65% (+64) (!) ANC 32% (-13) Another area with a surge of coloured voters towards the PA. Should be noted DA (15%) didn't contest which inflates PA a little. One of the smaller parties that endorsed PA was also strong here.

@zilevandamme And you can no longer blame your parents.
@zilevandamme It's absolutely clear that the DA has an arrangement with Cape Independence as its "Plan B". If, nationally, the ANC chooses the EFF over the DA as a coalition partner, then the DA will push for the stupidity of Cape Independence, funded by the Zionist wealth class, incl Hersov.
@zilevandamme What is it about some people who genuinely believe the existence of an obvious wrong amounts to a good justification for a subsequent wrong? So two wrongs now make a right?
@zilevandamme I was this days old when I found out that if someone else breaks the law it means you can too. 🤷♂️🤦♂️
@zilevandamme If they were carrying palestine flags, the DA would've sent a convoi of leap officers and a helicopter and John would've been there in the flesh to remove them.
