@Currentreport1 Plus, the US has drawn the best scientific minds from all over, to top institutes and companies. That’s become less attractive due to toxic politics and xenophobia in the States. There are signs of an exodus and fewer people from elsewhere choosing the US option.
@PresidencyZA@CyrilRamaphosa This is what peacemaking looks like - as opposed to the bullying belligerence that characterises the North these days. Intention, patience and steady work. Congrats Mr President and your Madagascan counterparts.
@helenzille This Cape Town vs Joburg thing is so tedious. Both have strengths and weaknesses. In both cases let’s focus on reducing the latter and promoting the former. Win win is the best option.
@TicketmasterZA I have tickets (wheelchair +1) for South Africa v Australia Cape Town 23 Aug … you have blocked access to my account because of unusual activity on my browser … so I cannot access my tickets … please resolve
@geordinhl Mr Mayor congrats on a job well done. In defence of many failing local municipalities, their residents are so poor, so marginalised. Even without corruption and mismanagement they would still be dysfunctional. Unfunded mandates in a sea of poverty. They were never going to work.
South Africa's water crisis is out of control! Toxic waste, sewage spills, and failing infrastructure are polluting our rivers and killing people. We must demand urgent action NOW! Join me to call on the government to fix this crisis >> https://t.co/3lB8SFxlHu
@HermanMashaba Nonsense, FACT. You axe-grinding DA-splinter parties should at least keep it honest. Time for you to merge into the ANC, where you belong.
@JohannBiermann1@CheckersSA Many of these guys drive recklessly and don’t know the law. In the 60s and 70s delivery scooters were phased out because there were too many deaths. Now it’s worse because they’re racing against the clock. Stores must stop this exploitation.
@HermanMashaba@Our_DA You have by now firmly established yourself and your “party” as supreme opportunists attempting to claw your way out of the political wilderness, no matter the cost to the country. Spoilers like you will no doubt be held to account at the municipal
Elections next year.
@mapimsibi1@PieterDuToit We need to distinguish between ambassador and political activist. An ambassador protects and advances South Africa’s interests. This requires finesse and diplomacy … especially in the quicksands of the US. Not the place for polemics. His ill-considered talk will cost us dearly.

Same old deadwood sitting listening to the tired rhetoric of the finance minister Godongwana. I dont see any serious cutting of government fat. This alone would have removed the need to raise VAT. #DA - get the hell out of GNU
