I did invite her to ask our ministers and deputy ministers what they thought but she carefully avoided doing so. And in the end, despite every effort, it amounts to nothing. Well, thatโs 5 minutes of my life I wonโt get back, but on the upside itโs Friday and I have a decent bottle of wine to look forward to later. For now though, itโs back to work, trying to help a part of South Africaโs government run a little better (humblest apologies).
