One CEO spent R23 million of taxpayer money on his personal security. The article below captures this outrageous spend well.

The recent by-election in Ward 56 proves that residents of the City of Tshwane are not happy with the performance of their ward councillors.

This refers to private donations above R100 000 to political parties, independent representatives and independent candidates, over and above public funding allocated to political parties represented in national and provincial legislatures, according to number of seats.

The two biggest parties in SA cut the cake and eat it. And then they allocate themselves some more. #DemocracyMatters

[Alan Beesley @AlanDBeesley]

So funny but sadly true. The bloated cabinet is living a luxurious lifestyle whilst many South Africans will go to bed hungry tonight. They pretend to care for the poor but continue to eat hard-pressed taxpayers' money.

[Henriette Frohlich @henriettefroh]

This is a mindset that is killing our young democracy. 🙄 How else are we going to fix our country, if we don’t have educated leaders making laws & overseeing government allocation and spending? #DemocracyMatters

Let’s use social media responsibly, and verify all information shared with hard facts. Fake news is real.

[Henriette Frohlich @henriettefroh]

We need to teach democracy at school in South Africa, so that all citizens understand the power they have to influence government.

Without public participation, only the interests of a few connected individuals are protected. And they will do anything to keep it that way.

The same DA that campaigned on eliminating VAT increases for the sake of the poor is now passing cost-of-living increases onto residents through municipal rates, writes Armand Bam.

Hence, this very bizarre talking point. Ma'am wut? A vote for the DA was, and is, most certainly, unequivocally, a vote for the ANC. It is visible to the blind and audible to the deaf. No amount of spin and demonising of "small parties" will change that the DA sold out. Finish.

[Alan Beesley @AlanDBeesley]

Fully agree - the Democratic Al"LIE"enace are not the ethical party they claim to be. In my time at Parliament, I have been amazed by their lies and hypocrisy

[Thabo Yabohlale @yabohlale]

The leadership that we have in @Action4SA is quite Alright

The people of South Africa are well represented by #ActionSA

@Our_DA and @EFFSouthAfrica lies have short legs and the people are watching you

[Malebo Kobe, MP @KobeMalebo]

Is this the level of journalism in our country???

This is an absolute lie, this is a victory of the party that voted in FAVOUR of the framework. You’ve been riding Mashaba hard for the past 2 weeks, admit it and give credit where it’s due. You said it’s not gonna happen before 1 May 2025. It’s happening! The DA is still to go to court on the 29th for their matter to be finalised.

Quit journalism and be what you really are, the DA’s official spokesperson! Your credibility has just left the room.

[Michael Beaumont @ME_Beaumont]

🚨You’ve been misled 🚨

About the VAT hike. About who was responsible. About who actually fought it.

This is your chance to hear the facts. See what they don’t want you to know.

🎥 Watch. Share. Set the Record Straight.

[ANC SECRETARY GENERAL | Fikile Mbalula @MbalulaFikile]

[WATCH] We are engaging with all political parties, and we can confirm that ActionSA is firm on question of the VAT not being part of the budget going forward.
