Zille unveils Blue Brigade in Joburg to drive service delivery.🛠🧰🚓

Helen Zille has taken her Joburg candidacy to the next level. 🚀 Launching a fleet of DA bakkies with volunteers to go out and assist the vulnerable wards in Joburg.

Unheard of in local politics. Zille has raised support to kit out a bunch of teams with equipment to be able to go out, fix and clean the problems that the ANC in Joburg has forgotten about.

It's a mass service delivery rollout to fill the holes that have been left by the city. Literally. Cutting grass, urban management, removing dumping, filling potholes you name it.

This is possibly the most aggressive political campaign seen in the country.

Such is the the racism of @Lesufi @GaytonMc as is the Parliamentary Select Committee. Afrikaners are not allowed their own cultural association yet there are 20 exclusively Black associations. This hypocrisy here is simple anti-white, simply racist. Ban the exclusively Black associations if Afrikaner associationsbmust must be banned.

This man, a convicted ex-bank robber, who spent 8-years in jail and now the Minister of Arts & Culture wants to erradicate Afrikaner culture. His racism now equals that of Cyril Ramalhosa and Panyaza Lesufi. This is targeted racism and contravenes the SA Constitution. Disgusting.

Another member of the Madlanga ward.

[Tau e Tshehadi @D_Molatoli]

"This is one of those useless so called medical certificates that says nothing whatsoever". Chair Madlanga.

There's nothing as painful as your intelligence being openly undermined and disrespected as Justice Madlanga and the Commissioners have been by all the Indian witnesses plus Mike van Wyk. Chair must set an example and subpoena all the 4 Doctors, Carrim, Khan, Johnson and Van Wyk's. Otherwise even Matlala will say he's sick on Wednesday. This is so unacceptable and unbecoming. You can how angry Chair is.

Why it feel acceptable to the ANC...

[Manikivana @Manikipi]

On the night when they heard their savings had been stolen by Malema, Floyd & others, they went to VBS & slept on the floor to get little that was left. 9yrs later still no justice for them. Instead, Malema runs a good EFF business which sends him to Gucci, LV, Durban July etc.

[Maria de Andrade 🇿🇦🇺🇦🌻 @AprilSnowGoose]

@ForGoodZA @SongezoZibi @brettherron She also cleared President Ramaphosa of all wrongdoing in the Phala Phala case. Now there is an impeachment committee with Makashule Gana as it's chair. So our Public Protector is impartial and credible when it comes to the DA but in the case of Pres. Ramaphosa not so much 🤷‍♀️

[Vusi de Villiers @Finnthehuman80]

These fucking people keep missing the point. It’s not Afrophobia and has nothing to do with Pan-Africanism. It has everything to do with people being fed up with crime and joblessness created by 30 years of loot by politicians enriching only themselves. When they stole from the country and their own people, they showed very little “Pan-Africanism”.

Don’t come with your Pan-African bullshit madam, if you have done your job better, none of this would be necessary.

Another farm attack in broad daylight. Pieter Buys, well-known mango farmer from Deer Park near Tzaneen, former chairman of the SA Mango Growers' Association and professional hunter, was viciously assaulted on his farm on 26 June, just a few days ago.

The attacker struck him twice in the back of the head with a panga, inflicting serious head injuries, then swung again at his face. Pieter heroically grabbed the blade with both hands, overpowered the suspect, and held him until workers arrived. He's now recovering at home after hospital treatment.

These panga attacks leave our farmers bloodied and families shattered. Pieter's resilience is remarkable, but why must White farmers endure this terror just to produce food for the nation?

[Sunay @SunayMol]

@DeanMacpherson Oh well.... I've been a DA supporter most of my life!
This statement by @DeanMacpherson just changed my mind!
Will have to start searching for a new political home...

[Paledi Mothapo @Paledian]

Many Black South Africans suffer from what could be described as “ANC syndrome”; the inability to identify (or denial to accept) the true source of their problems. This leads to an inability to find the real solutions to those problems and the continuation of their suffering or collapse, while others move to thrive.

[Douglas Wayne @Bound2Liberty]

No, no, no, no...

Let's be accurate here...

Please!

Neither Elon Musk, nor USAID is responsible for "the deaths of millions of children"

Please put the blame where it needs to be!

Corrupt, incompetent, inept and violent African leaders who steal every cent they can from their own people!

Africa is NOT a poor continent, it's a wealthy continent in the hands of really evil, highly corrupt and incompetent idiots.

Stop trying to blame white people for the failures of the people of this continent!

[Jacques @jacque0001]

@BusinessTechSA Yes offcourse the numbers dont add up because statistics SA is purposefully manipulating how we measure these things. 46% is our actual unemployment rate.

The self imposed economic sanctions via BEE is doing exactly what it was designed for.

[Evangelist Khonzi Mani 🇿🇦 @Mqadi99]

@Newzroom405 “Deal with exploitation of immigrants.”

How about closing down the borders so that there are no “illegal” immigrants that enter our country?

You don’t have money to employ teachers, nurses & doctors but you have money to employ 10 000 inspectors?

[Tebogo Khaas @tebogokhaas]

This is beyond frightening.

We, the people, have become the enemy of the state per @SAPoliceService minister Feroz Cachalia.

An industry routinely accused of facilitating the movement of undocumented migrants across our borders is invited to sit across the table from government and lecture South Africans about the rule of law.

An industry long associated with violence, the proliferation of izinkabi, and the intimidation of commuters and other road users is enlisted by the state as an enforcement partner.

Meanwhile, elements of the private security industry — some of whose financiers are known to have close commercial ties with sections of the taxi industry — are deployed alongside these same izinkabi to fortify the state’s response to citizens exercising their constitutional right to protest.

The inversion is staggering. Instead of confronting decades of governance failures, lawlessness and criminality, the state increasingly treats ordinary citizens as the threat while embracing those long accused of undermining the very rule of law it now invokes.

I could go on.

[Farai Mazhindu @FaraiMazhindu]

South Africa's insistence on doubling down on B-BBEE is economic suicide.

The belief that you can legislate wealth creation through race based equity mandates is a proven fallacy.

We have decades of global data showing exactly how this ends. Look at Malaysia. Look at Zimbabwe.

In 1971, Malaysia launched its New Economic Policy (NEP) to enforce a 30% corporate equity target for the Malay majority. It didn't create a broad middle class. Instead, it birthed "Ali Baba" schemes, the exact equivalent of South Africa's BEE fronting.

It triggered severe capital flight, drove out high skilled talent, and crippled competitiveness until they were forced to roll back rigid equity quotas in 2009 to save their economy.

Zimbabwe tried the same radical experiment with its Indigenisation Act. It completely collapsed Foreign Direct Investment and forced the state into a total policy U-turn in 2018.

You cannot bully capital into compliance. Capital simply walks away to jurisdictions that respect property rights and merit.

South Africa does not need to reinvent the wheel to fix this. The blueprint for abandonment is clear: Scrap race as a proxy for disadvantage.

Exempt all small and medium enterprises from transformation scorecards. Forcing startups to waste scarce capital on BEE consultants kills the exact engines meant to solve the unemployment crisis.

End the middleman tenderpreneur economy. State contracts must be awarded strictly on competence, price, and merit. Paying a 300% markup to an unvetted intermediary just to satisfy a procurement point system is why public infrastructure is collapsing.

Empowerment happens at the foundational level, not in corporate boardrooms through forced equity transfers.

If you want true empowerment, you fix the education system, build technical capacity, and deregulate the market.

Communism through (my) ages:
1) When I was 15, a teacher told me "It isn't as bad as they say, and makes a lot of sense."
2) At about 19, college friends, "Socialism isn't communism."
3) At 20, on meeting my grandfather-in-law, "They are evil. We escaped in 1949."
4) At 30, "China is a wonderful developing Democracy"
5) At 35, I was sent to communist China on business. It was a crowded, smelly, dirty, factory of despair and hopelessness. This I saw with my own eyes.
6) At 36, "China doesn't count. Successful socialism is in northern Europe."
7) I moved to northern Europe when I was 40. It was much nicer than China, but also felt like I was living in the past. I had to wait 6 months for a hernia operation.
8) When I was about 45, the migrant crisis began. The socialist/globalist/pacifist allowed them entry into every country, regardless how many crimes they committed along the way. Just 20 minutes from my house, in Calais, I was shocked to see migrants jumping onto trucks, breaking open the doors, scattering the contents across the highway, then climbing in. They went through the Chunnel and got out in England.
9) At 52, the soft socialism around me had transformed into globalism. I was told I had to call people by their preferred pronouns, though it was a lie, and even if I didn't know what the preferences were. I quit.
10) I returned to the US, and am now 60. "Socialism" is no longer a dirty word here. People openly espouse the virtues of it. Politicians run as socialists and win.

Socialism has taken many forms, from the Bolshevism of Russia, to the CCP in China, the Nazis in Germany, Fascists in Italy, and the many forms of it found in Latin America. It is one of the two most destructive ideologies on earth. It is designed to deprive, despirit, and murder everything that comes in contact with it.

Socialism is a great lie at every level. It helps no one, not even those who benefit the most. This is because the cost is the imposition of one's will on everyone else, and that destroys the soul of the usurper and the life of the oppressed.

Socialism always fails on its own, but only after destroying almost everything in its train. It can also be conquered. Those are the options.

Good morning South Africans!

Meet the Winnie Mandela of our Lifetime, anointed by the one and only Julius Malema.

She is the head of IDAC, doing everything in her power to protect the cartel, while waging war against General Nhlanhla Mkwanazi.
