The aim of this bill is to reduce the pay disparity that exists between white and black workers. The DA is trying to stop this bill from being passed, just as they opposed the increase of the minimum wage. The DA is an enemy of the black working class. Vote responsibly.

Y'all see how language works?

MBJ is "demanding" $18M to play Tubbs, but if this was Chris Evans he'd be "negotiating" for $18M to play Crockett.

Words mean things.

The real feature here my darling is the fact that the apartheid government ran secret slush funds, sanctions-busting schemes, offshore loot, “lifeboat” bank bailouts and propaganda projects like Muldergate, while dispossessing and killing. Go read the Ciex report and see how your ABSA, Sanlam, Armscor, FNB & nedbank benefitted during apartheid, and still continue to benefit. lol. Bo avbob 🙄

The ANC isn’t a saint, but I will never shy away from the truth that it inherited a wreckage and had to rebuild for ALL South Africans.

Post 1994 the state massively expanded:
1. Electricity connections into townships, rural areas & informal settlements.
2.Water and sanitation access for communities previously excluded.
3.Housing delivery that enabled millions to own homes for the first time and continued to build homes.
4.Roads, schools, clinics in places apartheid neglected or deliberately underdeveloped.
5. Child support grants for children with no parenrs, old age pensions, disability grants, foster care grants, all at a large scale.
6. Desegregated schooling and universities in law
7. Free government schools and large-scale learner support in poorer communities (imperfect, but a major shift from Bantu Education’s intent to limit Black advancement), NSFAS etc etc…

What achievements can the apartheid government brag about?
