@PaulineHansonOz@AWolf1989 And many will try to sell wind and solar is cheaper as result of subsidies.... Well .. subsidies don't appear out of thin air .. Gov subsidies are paid for by the taxpayer... You don't get wind and solar cheaper if it's subsidized, you just pay the full price with your tax...
@PaulineHansonOz@AWolf1989 Nuclear has a smaller environmental footprint as wind and solar and is the cheapest form of electricity per watt available in the world today.
South Africa on high alert for national shutdown next week
South Africa will deploy more police this week to deter possible violence before a June 30 deadline set by protest groups for foreigners to leave the country.
“There has been mobilisation around this issue over a period of time, and we expect it to continue after June 30, so we have plans in place,” Firoz Cachalia, the acting police minister, said in an interview with state-owned broadcaster SAfm on Monday.

I came from Greece 38 yrs ago. I’ve always thought if you migrate it is YOUR responsibility to fit in and be thankful. Bring good bits (often food) and leave the bad behind. Australia now has best coffee and best food. Lately though we have an immigrant class who demand WE change to suit THEM. That’s unacceptable

This is a problem.
For anyone who thinks South Africa has any future whatsoever and can be turned back from our pathway to becoming the next Zimbabwe...

It can not be stated enough just how bad this messaging is from GHL:
- the FF+ is a natural ally of the DA, not a foe
- it is well known that the DA has lost support to the FF+ because of Steenhuisen’s behaviour, but this will not convince a return
- opinions vary but many consider Groenewald to be the best Minister in the GNU and not any of the DA Minsters. Attacking him comes across as jealous and petty
- the issue being raised by GHL was not created by Groenewald or the FF+, but he is trying to sort it out. Imagine this logic of attack being applied to Macpherson who still has no control over thousands of assets of state owned infrastructure, or Schreiber who has numerically done nothing to stem/reverse illegal immigration
- criticizing someone outside the DA for holding a “talk shop” is very rich when the DA does this exact thing often
- lastly is that Helen Zille will likely be the Mayor of Johannesburg by year end. Just imagine all of the things she will not be able to fix in her first 2 years - GHL just opened the floodgates on hammering her without rebuke
Whomever advised this as a strategy needs to be fired immediately, and the DA really needs to learn how to predict the future consequences of their words and actions better. My goodness.
@SteveBarrettM95@DrewPavlou Very few appreciate the recharge you get for your soul in these beautiful places. The most profound silence, the most brilliant stars.. it's truly magical in its glory.
Are you seriously posting this when your minister of agriculture has allowed the foot and mouth disease outbreak to become the worst one in recorded history in this country, not allowing farmers to vaccinate their own herd and the other fumbles by your other ministers... and then you want to throw shade on the best performing minister in the GNU? Sit down buddy.
@geordinhl How did they went missing on his watch?? Half went missing pre 2004 and most of the remainder before 2018? You are stating factually incorrect information and you know it. Pieter only became minister in 2024, so let's ask what the DA did about 6mil illegals in SA on their watch
@Our_DA 15860 went missing before 2004...the majority of the remaining missing went missing before 2018. Pieter became minister in 2024. How is he responsible for this "shocking failure"?
@Our_DA you are dishonest, backstabbing politicians. It's a shame
