Duncan Artus, new CEO of Allan Gray has always been a straight shooter. Today he says in ST": "You can't have successful companies in a country that fails", warning SA is close to a death spiral. Will govt. listen? Respect Duncan, respect!
The ANC has gone past its sell by date. It is no longer relevant to the economic and social challenges of our times. The leaders have buried their heads in the sand. It is time for change. We must create our own future. #PutSouthAfricaFirst
Imagine a country where thousands of small businesses are going bankrupt due to Covid-19 rules, while fully-laden taxi's whizz by and funerals are held with not a mask in sight. We can't breathe with your sized 12 boot on our necks, Mr President!!
If it's against the law to promote a tax boycott, then we should campaign that taxpayers pay their taxes at the last possible moment as a sign of protest. One minute to midnight. That will unsettle the cash flow forecasts!
When civil servants also lose their jobs and have their salaries halved or eliminated as a consequence of their decisions, they will make different decisions.
Constitutional harassment is happening in South Africa. Liberty and the rule of law under threat. Unbelievable authoritarian control by an unconstitutional council!
Locking down even harder again will change nothing besides for ensuring further economic strife and human suffering.
One can only hope that the journalists who have used fearmongering and imbalanced reporting to push for this outcome will eventually find themselves unemployed.
The DA calls on President Cyril Ramaphosa to tell SA what his govt will be doing to address the long-ignored and again increasing numbers of farm attacks and farm murders. Or is he going to continue to pretend that they are not happening? - @DKB20

I’m sorry Mr President but it is hard to take you seriously as a leader when, at the same time as you speak to the Nation, Ace Magashule lectures us on corruption and accountability!
In SA any comment on the economy is a comment on politics and policy. They go together like a horse and carriage. In SA more so than in any other country.
