So, Dev has two girlfriends: Design and Data. He won't let them meet under any circumstance! Frustrating that there's no middle ground between aesthetics and statistics. Your charts are either accurate or pretty - never both. (Unless you DIY the data, design & development🙄)

STATEMENT ON THE MK PARTY'S CHALLENGE TO ELECTION RESULTS AND BOYCOTT OF FIRST SITTING

For a soundbite for the Spokesperson of Parliament, Mr Moloto Mothapo, please click: https://t.co/hkTPQeWlwT

Parliament, Monday, 10 June 2024 - Parliament has taken note of the letter from the MK Party informing the institution of its intention to challenge the validity of the election results as declared by the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC). The party has also indicated that its 58 elected Members, who are expected to occupy seats in the National Assembly, will boycott and not attend the first sitting. The MK Party is protesting the scheduling of the first sitting of the National Assembly, claiming it would not be constitutional.

Parliament does not agree with MK Party’s interpretation of Section 46 of the Constitution. Parliament is of the view that it is legally bound to facilitate the first sitting of the National Assembly and the National Council of Provinces at a date and time determined by the Chief Justice, and there are no legal impediments preventing this process.

According to section 49(3) of the Constitution, unless and until the results of the election are set aside by a court, Parliament must ensure that the sittings proceed as directed. Because the first sittings of the National Assembly and the National Council of Provinces will take place physically, the Parliamentary Administration is in the process of making arrangements to provide travel and accommodation for all members listed by the IEC, as handed over by the Chief Justice, to attend these sittings and the associated onboarding activities scheduled in Cape Town.

In light of the MK Party's expressed decision, through their legal representatives, not to attend the first sitting, Parliament has cancelled all arrangements for accommodation and flights for the party's elected members. This measure is to avoid incurring fruitless and wasteful expenditure, in compliance with the Financial Management of Parliament and Provincial Legislatures Act, 2009.

Parliament reaffirms its commitment to carrying out its responsibilities under the Constitution in the scheduling of the first sittings of the National Assembly and the National Council of Provinces. We remain dedicated to ensuring that the established democratic processes and procedures are upheld in accordance with the laws and Constitution of our country.

We’ve disembarked, after another haranguing by Polish authorities. A South African SAPS official, clearly frustrated after 26 hours holed up in the plane, telling the Poles: “Just because we’re from Africa doesn’t mean you can disrespect us.” We’re going to the terminal. @News24

[Lord Bebo @MyLordBebo]

The South African delegation and security was not allowed off the plane!
-> His is pure harassment! Shame on you Poland!

[Pieter Du Toit @PieterDuToit]

This is unbelievable. The Polish authoriries are still refusing to budge. Gen Wally Rhoode, head of the Presidential Protection Service stands to the left, on his phone. We are advised to get onto the plane. “It could get worse,” an unnamed SAA official says. @News24

BRICS | China buys corn from South Africa for the first time as they start turning away from U.S. exports.

The delivery of more than 460 000 kg of corn comes after Chinese buyers cancelled hundreds of thousands of tonnes of U.S. corn orders.

After this news United states of America went on to the media and lied about South Africa supplying arms to Russia. They don't realise that their bullying tactics don't work anymore.

Putin is building something.....

BRICS Zelensky South Africa 🇿🇦

@quiethandfilms Epic! Dunno why, but that guy srsly looked South African to me. Took me a moment to notice all the American Airlines stuff around.

@HuffPost This was literally a show exploiting poor and ignorant people's problems in public for money and laughs by allowing (antagonising) everyone to cross the line for some kinda fake therapy spiel. There really was no benefit to anyone but the producers.
