We don’t need an uprising or violence to remove the ANC and their proxy parties. We have something more powerful: an opportunity to vote.

When a SOE that builds & maintains roads, issues 52 deviation tenders based on emergency reasons, you must become very suspicious. Exposed: The rot in Sanral’s procurement system - Moneyweb https://t.co/2V41KP9NBW
South Africa is led by a Billionaire that’s detached from reality. Cyril Ramaphosa has no idea what he is talking about. He is mentioning businesses, as if South Africa is competitive. We have no businesses, Cyril Ramaphosa is a total failure!
In a recent @News24 interview, Lieutenant-General Patekile claimed he was unaware of SAPS members being involved in the taxi industry.
That is simply not true.
The SAPS was formally made aware of these allegations.
On 17 March 2026, I submitted a detailed enquiry containing the names of members, the stations they were attached to and requested clarity on what disciplinary and criminal measures would be taken against them.
Section 46 of the SAPS Act prohibits SAPS members from owning minibus taxis, while SAPS National Instruction 18 of 2019 further prohibits any direct or indirect involvement in the taxi industry.
We followed every process. We submitted the evidence. We sent numerous follow-up emails. The only responses received were acknowledgements that the matter was "being looked into."
Now, after months, maybe even years of inaction, the Provincial Commissioner wants South Africans to believe he knew nothing.
He knew. SAPS knew.
More than 20 members have since been criminally charged, more than 10 have resigned and additional reports continue to emerge.
The facts are clear. The paper trail exists. The evidence was provided.
Lieutenant-General Patekile lied.
South Africans deserve honest leadership, accountability, and a police service that enforces the law equally not one that ignores it until exposed.
Here is one of the videos where I once again brought it up in parliament to the acting police minister and acting national commissioner.
Unannounced oversight at Cape Town SAPS Flying Squad where police members are expected to do the job with only 45% of their vehicles operational. So if you need help during an armed robbery or any serious crime, they likely cannot respond because they don’t have vehicles to. I will write to the national commissioner and minister for intervention.
To all you fcuken idiots that vote for this useless cnut: we deserve better than this!!!! Cabinet members that waste this kind of money need to be charged and fired!!!!!! Vote better next time morons!!!!
Gauteng Health Budget fails patients again.
13/37 hospitals have acting CEOs. Surgery waits up to 10 years. Cancer delays continue.
DA Shadow MEC Dr Jack Bloom calls on MEC Mazibuko to withdraw the wasteful court case against patient groups and focus on fixing the system.
The DA opposes this budget. Patients deserve better.

MASSIVE EDUCATION SCANDAL: 22,000 Ghost Teachers + 610,000 Undocumented Pupils Exposed! 😡
The Education Labour Relations Unit has uncovered a shocking mess in our schools:
At least 22,000 teacher records that don’t match government payroll data.
Over 610,000 undocumented pupils (both South African and foreign nationals).
This means huge amounts of taxpayer money are being lost while our classrooms are overcrowded and service delivery collapses.

Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana says he can't disclose the details of the ongoing South African Revenue Service (SARS) investigation into Phala Phala buffalo buyer Hazim Mustafa. https://t.co/P1cHppkFu0
In the early 1990s, as a young advocate, I was briefed to represent a client charged with a horrific murder before the Swellendam Circuit Court. He stood accused of raping a young woman in the veld and then crushing her skull with a rock.
Circuit Courts are a distinctive feature of South Africa's judicial system. They are, in effect, travelling courts that sit in different towns to hear criminal and civil matters in areas where permanent courts may be difficult to access. In those days, when the judge, prosecutor and defense counsel arrived in town, it almost felt as though the sheriff had ridden in from the Wild West. They possessed a certain theatre. Investigating officers generally ensured that their cases appeared watertight. Acquittals were rare and, before 1995, the death penalty was a commonplace reality.
I met with my client on the eve of the trial. He had already confessed before a magistrate, giving a detailed account of the crime. According to the confession, he and the State's principal witness had been drinking together in the veld one afternoon. The witness had passed out beside him when the victim walked by. He confessed that he had grabbed her, dragged her into the veld and committed the terrible acts with which he had been charged.
At first glance, it seemed a straightforward case for the gallows. I had a client who wished to plead guilty to a heinous crime. That, in itself, was unusual.
Yet something troubled me. My client was a small man, timid and withdrawn. When I later saw the State's principal witness, I began to wonder about the confession. The witness was a large, imposing figure and certainly capable of dragging a woman across the veld. What unsettled me further was that the witness’ statement dovetailed almost too neatly with the confession. It concluded that my client had walked off into the veld shortly before the witness passed out, a detail that struck me as altogether too convenient.
The confession, however, posed an enormous obstacle, as confessions so often do. I have little doubt that, during the heyday of apartheid, innocent people were sent to the gallows on the strength of false confessions.
Then my client's sister, who had accompanied him, told me something that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Her brother, she said, had given her a very different account. He had passed out while drinking and could not remember exactly what had happened that day. She added that the State's principal witness was on friendly terms with the local police officers investigating the case.
The prosecutor was a man of great integrity. I decided to do something I had never attempted before. I suggested that he speak privately with my client and his sister and judge for himself who was more likely to have committed the crime.
About half an hour later, the prosecutor emerged from his office, his face a mixture of shock and disbelief. He immediately withdrew the charges against my client and instructed the police to arrest the State's principal witness instead.
It was a reminder that even in the most apparently hopeless cases, the duty of counsel is not merely to process the evidence placed before them, nor simply to secure a conviction or an acquittal, but to search relentlessly for the truth. Sometimes justice depends upon the willingness to question what everyone else has already accepted as fact.
‼️POLICE FORENSIC CRISIS‼️The law is clear. Under the Criminal Law (Forensic Procedures) Amendment Act, read with Schedule 8 of the Criminal Procedure Act, arrested and charged Schedule 8 suspects, and relevant convicted offenders, must have buccal swabs taken for DNA purposes.
This is why every SAPS station must have DB kits available.
These kits are not admin. They help populate the National Forensic DNA Database, identify suspects, link repeat offenders to other crimes, and strengthen cases for prosecution.
When SAPS does not have these basics on hand, victims lose, detectives lose, and dangerous offenders may remain unidentified. Some stations have already completely run out and others are about to.

It took News24 three years, but finally the Gauteng Department of Health has been ordered by the Information Regulator to hand over key documents related to the Tembisa Hospital pillage. All that’s left for them is to litigate at the High Court. What is Gauteng hiding?
@wicks_jeff she was just doing her job and that's what makes her fate so shocking. We need to come up with a new word for someone just doing their job without any intention of being whistleblower.
End of the line: Gauteng health ordered to disclose files related to R2.3bn Tembisa scandal
The Information Regulator has issued an ultimatum to the Gauteng Health Department to release records tied to the R2.3b Tembisa graft scandal, sought by News24. Officials who defy the order face criminal prosecution.
Remember Babita Deokaran.
The attacks on Ian Cameron weren’t just attacks, but smear campaigns carried by General Khan, using the EFF of Julius Malema. Because he has minions that are always hungry to attack others.
Ian Cameron appointed as the DA’s MP drew serious backlash, where some popular X users were seen declaring him as a racist, because the Cartel knew that Ian Cameron serves with honour and integrity, he was gonna disrupt them from running their crime networks.
Honourable Ian Cameron was attacked by the EFF minions, instructed by General Khan, using his puppet Malema.
