I've turned this data into a website that lets you explore the crime stats through interactive maps: https://t.co/643TXWNxdi

For anyone who might find it useful, I've extracted the last five years of SA crime statistics from the awkward SAPS spreadsheets, and made them available at https://t.co/q7KYAGVLuC

@MetrorailWC please can you share the timetable for the Monte Vista line?

@hamboneZA The article has been corrected - they're going to stop issuing the books by the end of the year, not make them invalid. Presumably this means that naturalized and PR will be able to get cards by the end of the year.

@Uber_RSA my @UberEats driver picked up my food, drove around in circles for 40 minutes and then cancelled the order. What on earth is going on?

@FreeInduna @hamboneZA The tariffs have not returned to what they were before the drought. But you claimed we are still paying "Day Zero" tariffs which is not true. The current "Water Wise" tariffs are much lower than the level 6 "Day Zero" tariffs.

@hamboneZA Was this because of the Chris Brown thing?

[Adrian Frith @adrianfrith]

@Gcruyce It would seem so, yes.

[Adrian Frith @adrianfrith]

It appears that Stats SA will only be releasing data at ward level, and not small area level. This is ... not good.

I had the honour of working with Greg in the campaign for the 2024 election. His passing is a massive loss to the DA and our nation. 💔

[Democratic Alliance @Our_DA]

🕊️ It is with profound sadness and a deep sense of loss that we have learnt today of the passing of Gregory Krumbock, a dedicated Member of Parliament, the Democratic Alliance's National Campaign Manager for many elections, including campaign 2024, a visionary strategist and a stalwart of the Democratic Alliance. Greg was not just a colleague; he was a friend, a mentor, and a passionate advocate for democracy in South Africa.

Rest in peace, Greg Krumbock. Your legacy will live on.

[Adrian Frith @adrianfrith]

@sixhobbits Oh ja no that's a whole separate disaster for research and policy-making.

@CathrynR Voëlvlei continues to vex.

The serious answer is, it's an off-channel reservoir filled by canals that divert water from the rivers flowing off the Groot Winterhoek. This means it can't take the full flow of the rivers, only the fraction that the weir/canal system allows.

Well. 📈

Theewaterskloof is up 8 percentage points since Sunday.

Voëlvlei is up a bit more than 4 percentage points.

Berg River Dam is at 105% and spilling.

[Adrian Frith @adrianfrith]

Theewaterskloof now at 98.7% and on course to spill within a day or two.

This is how the 2024 election would have looked had we used the electoral system proposed in the Van Zyl Slabbert Report.

I've updated my imagined demarcation of South Africa into 200 single-member constituencies for 2024.
