😳😳 Steenhuisen says Resolve Communications, chaired by former DA leader Tony Leon and led by former DA CEO Paul Boughey, ran a campaign against him on FMD and introd clients to him and DA ministers to discuss policy, notably Starlink. Echoes Bell Pottinger and Bain-era issues.

The first group Ghanaian nationals are on their way back home. They have been boarding their flight at OR Tambo International Airport, after taking up a repatriation offer from their government. Out of the 300 screened before the departure, only 10 were in South Africa legally. Their decision to return home comes amid ongoing protests against undocumented foreign nationals.

🇮🇱🇺🇸 Tucker Carlson to Israel’s Channel 13:

“As an Israeli you should pause before using the phrase ‘terror regime.’ Since you live in a country that murdered thousands of children in Gaza.

It’s a little hard to hear that from an Israeli right now, I have to say.”

Nigeria has one of the toughest visa on arrival laws for non West Africans. The Nigerian visa handbook says Zimbabweans and other southern Africans are eligible for a visa on arrival. We once paid nearly $900 for a kid visa due to complications. Everyone must follow rules.

UPDATE: My medical licence suspension review is next Wednesday – 20 May – 9AM – St James Building, Manchester.

As many of you know, besides being arrested 5 times, the pro‑'israel' lobby also reported me to the British medical regulator @GMCUK.

I won the first investigation.

The lobby escalated their vexatious complaints and began smearing me in the press.

The GMC opened a second investigation.

The lobby demanded I be referred to a tribunal (to place conditions on or suspend doctors while under investigation).

The GMC referred me to an Interim Orders Tribunal at the @the_mpts.

I won.

The lobby demanded I be re‑referred. They demanded my suspension.

Health Secretary @wesstreeting - who is funded by the 'israel' lobby - made unfounded public comments against my win. He also threatened the tribunal with lawfare.

Eight days later, the GMC referred me to the tribunal – AGAIN.

The second tribunal suspended me for 15 months on 26 November 2025.

Next week at the review, I will put forward my case again.

The existing suspension can be maintained, replaced with conditions, or revoked.

Remember: I have never had a single patient complaint in my 7‑year career.

This is political persecution. Because I opposed genocide and supremacism.

This is a public hearing. You are welcome to attend.

We will fight. We will win.

Free Palestine 🇵🇸. Free Britain 🇬🇧.

الصحفي : مارايك في تصرف لامين يامال بالامس في احتفالات برشلونه بالدوري وهل يجب على اللاعب عدم التدخل في امور ليست خاصه بكرة القدم؟

جوارديولا : وهل يجب عليك انت ايضا التدخل في اشياء ليست من اختصاصك انت هنا لتسألني عن مباراه كريستال بالاس غدا

وبرغم ذلك سأرد علي سؤالك.....لاعب الكره هو قدوه يقتدي به الملايين ورأيه مؤثر لذلك يجب عليه المشاركه برأيه اذا لزم الامر

ماذا ستفعل اذا وجدت ز��جتك وابنائك تحت انقىا.ض البيوت مثلهم هناك هل ستخرج هنا في ا��مؤتمر لتتحدث عن لاعب يرتدي قميص ويجري خلف كرة ؟؟ بالطبع لا!!

انت لاتختار المواضيع التي نريد التحدث عنها لذلك هي اشياء ليست من اختصاصك موقف لامين يجب عليه ان يفتخر به اصبح حديث العالم الان.

After I confronted @helenzille, one thing is very clear: South Africans can see the truth even when politicians refuse to. The DA should support South Africa’s ICJ case, stop coal to Israel, back boycott and sanction, and stop pretending genocide is too complicated to name.

Dear @geordinhl, congratulations.

We hope for better relations with @Our_DA.

Fact: More than 80% of South Africans support good relations with Iran...

Netanyahu sent his son to campaign for Orbán. Netanyahu sent a personal video to Orbán's rally. Orbán just lost by 14 points, the biggest landslide in Hungarian democratic history.

Why did Netanyahu care so much?

Because Orbán was the only EU leader who vetoed sanctions on Israel. Every single time. That veto is gone. The ICC withdrawal is reversed.
The EU firewall is dead.

Israel's own Ynet News headline, two days ago: "If Orbán falls, Israel could lose its EU firewall." He didn't just fall.
He was buried.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

Forza Europeans!
Only 200,000 signatures needed to push EU institutions to suspend the indecent partnership agreement with Apartheid Israel. Bcs it is not OK to make business with a State that commits intl crimes on a daily basis.

The UK Foreign Secretary says she is “deeply troubled" by Israel's latest massacre in Lebanon.

So “troubled” that the government still supplies Israel with weapons and intelligence.

Israel is committing war crimes in Lebanon - and this government is shamefully complicit.

[Dr Tlaleng Mofokeng @drtlaleng]

I am Dr Tlaleng Mofokeng, a medical doctor & the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Right of everyone to the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health, I continue to demand, since his abduction, the release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya from the brutal detention by Israel. He faces imminent and grave danger as a result of ill-treatment and inhumane conditions & the denial of medical care has been leading to severe physical mental harm and his current deterioration is rapid - these are gross human rights violations.

"As Hitler said, 'I cannot live if one Jew is left,' we can't live here if one [Palestinian] remains in Gaza.”

There are over 20,000 Ugandan people staying in South Africa illegally.

The distance between Uganda and South Africa is roughly 2,500 miles. To reach South Africa illegally, a person must bypass at least four international borders.

If over 20,000 people are making that trek, imagine the sheer scale of migration from South Africa's immediate neighbors, who only have to cross a river or jump a fence.

The African obsession with South Africa has become deeply exploitative. We are seeing South Africa being treated as a universal safety valve for the governance failures of the rest of the continent. It is an unfair burden on a single nation's infrastructure and taxpayers.

The dream of a Borderless Africa sounds noble in a boardroom, but in reality, it would be the final blow to the few working economies left. You cannot have open borders when economic disparity is this vast. It doesn't create unity, rather, it imports poverty and collapses systems.

We are currently witnessing a massive immigration crisis that threatens South African schools, hospitals, and social stability.

Before we talk about visa-free travel, we must discuss economic convergence. Other nations must become livable so their citizens aren't forced to flee.

South Africa cannot be the refuge of last resort for 1.4 billion people. Protecting South African borders isn't anti-African, it is an act of national survival.

Until the continent stabilizes, the romantic idea of a borderless Africa remains a recipe for total collapse.
