If you are an unemployed person/youth looking for work in South Africa, I want you to listen to me very carefully, because no politician is going to campaign by telling you the truth.

South Africa's unemployment rate is currently 32.7%
At a sustained 5% annual GDP growth (we've barely achieved 1% for over a decade), reducing it to 20% would likely take 12-18 years.

Read that again.
Read it again.

IF 5% - maybe 12-18 years.

This assumes some translation from growth to jobs, but SA's structural issues create jobless growth. This is why investment doesn't = employment.

Even optimistic models project slow progress.
4% growth barely dents youth unemployment.
Again, Cyril and their policies can't achieve 1%.

The majority of you will NOT SEE employment in your lifetime. I'm sorry to tell you that.

The ANC has stolen your life.
Every dream you ever had.
Wrap your mind around that.
Have a blessed day.

@myanc perhaps some of the cadres can learn from this?

[Mykhailo Rohoza @MykhailoRohoza]

When Charles de Gaulle led France, he treated public money as something untouchable.
At the Élysée Palace, there was a strict rule for him: no personal expense could ever be paid for by the state.
His wife, Yvonne, kept a small notebook in which she meticulously recorded all family expenses — from food and electricity to clothing and even soap.
At the end of each month, she would send a check to the state treasury, reimbursing every last cent.
Once, an accountant remarked that this was not really necessary.
She calmly replied:
“Everything that is not public is personal.
And for personal matters, we pay ourselves.”
This principle applied without exception.
Their children and grandchildren were not allowed to use official cars for private matters.
De Gaulle himself refused any privileges of office: he paid his own bills at the palace — even for the smallest things, such as soap or family meals.
Moreover, he did not use his presidential salary, living only on his military pension.
After his death, there was no wealth or luxury left behind — only a modest house in Colombey-les-Deux-Églises, purchased before the war.
It is said that he would sometimes personally send money to the treasury if he suspected that any personal expense might have accidentally been covered by the state budget.
This was not a formality.
It was a principle.
✨ An example of true integrity, honor, and responsibility in public service.

As the Ayatollahs go—they are no longer relevant in the 21st century—the ANC should also go in South Africa. It’s time. The party is no longer relevant; it’s toxic, divisive, incompetent, and has destroyed our economy. Not through airstrikes, of course—South Africans should vote it out of power in the next elections. We have to move on, folks. #economy #politics #MajoziCommentary

"When there is no water, we also go through the same inconvenience. In some instances I had to go to a hotel to bath." 🤣

The struggle is real.

R.I.P ANC.

@BhushanManmath Poor decision from the umpire but from his view it looked out - Healy knew but the Aussies aren't the most sporting cricket team. We all know this.

[Masih Alinejad 🏳️ @AlinejadMasih]

A woman cuts her hair at her sister’s funeral in #Iran, because the regime shot her sister in the head.
Let me be clear with Western female politicians, especially those in leadership positions in Europe: Do not cut your hair in symbolic solidarity with Iranian women. Cut your ties with our killers.
Believe me cutting your hair for Instagram solidarity, doesn’t scare dictators. It doesn’t save lives. It just makes you feel better. Stop legitimizing our terrorist regime.

Her name was Melika Dastyab.
She was 21, a musician, economics student and she was dead by security forces while her sister stood next to her.

That’s not a hashtag.
That’s a crime against humanity.

Heavy rains in Limpopo have transformed the Groot Letaba into a spectacular raging river of white water!

The beautiful waterfalls you soar above within our Magoebaskloof Canopy Tour system could almost be mistaken for their big brother, the 'Smoke That Thunders'.

If you want to experience the extreme power of nature, now is the ideal time to Earn Your Wings and zipline over this natural wonder in full flood.
