A firm believer believer in the fight for equality for all.
DA’s @helenzille and @TonyLeonSA just rubbed arrogant bellies saying the City of Cape Town spends more in Khayelitsha than in Camps Bay.
Watch this @SundayTimesZA video and see how insulting such statement is.
Best of luck Johannesburg
Those voting in Cape Town look at the parties talking about a rent freeze. Some of us can't afford the @Our_DA town cause whether you black or white or coloured the city is not for you.
Why we not saying anything about the fact that I worked for an NGO where social housing was about to be sorted and it was DA MPs who denied it. As you vote tomorrow realise all of these things.
If you know Cape Town and the violence from there you would not jump unto the @HellenZille bandwagon she doesn't believe in spring the injustices of Cape Town. We being deceived by poor marketing from her. Ask @AxolileNotywala#notsayingforhisparty but knows what we experienced.
As we go v tomorrow please consider the following things. I was born and raised in Cape Town where my Khayelitsha voice died during the term of any DA person. For me @drtlaleng please google her and the work she has done for women and the queer community, it's not about the EFF.

Our Office and Finance Administrator @ZGqozo asks @CyrilRamaphosa to also focus on queer people in his #SONA2022 speech.
“Queer people are being violated in public transport and that hasn’t been given attention.”
What is your #QueerSONA?
In the education system, there are gaps in regards to the experiences and needs of trans and gender-diverse learners, says Genevieve Louw (@GALAarchives).
What is your #QueerSONA?
#SONA22 is tomorrow & President @CyrilRamaphosa will give a review of last year & priorities for 2022.
LGBTQI+ issues seldom make the cut so we’re hosting the #QueerSONA. If you had a chance to write the President’s speech, what would you say?
