    Cape Town school's electricity connection cut after failing to pay R39,000 bill

    Great job. Hope Eskom starts doing this to everyone who does not pay. Even if it is government. What is good for the private sector, should be good for government sector as well. We could stop load shedding for paid up municipalities completely if only those municipalities who are not paying is...

    Eskom’s plan to control your geyser

    Another huge hoax from Eskom to implement only those who actually pay. What does Eskom think is going to happen to the informal settlements, or poorer communities. They will riot again for lack of service. Eskom is moving in the wrong direction and is limiting those who actually pays...

    Cabinet approves sending SABC Bill to Parliament - TV Licence changes promised

    The fact that people are not paying TV licenses is exactly that, people are not using it and thus not supporting. SABC, please do us a huge favour and close your doors. You are like the SAA, and Eskom, hanging on by a thread because you cannot manage your funds, or improve your content. Just...

    Why Cape Town won't approve off-grid inverters for grid-tied solar installations from October

    We all knew this was coming. That is why I will not move over to renewable energy in Cape Town. Same as with the water and load shedding, Cape Town needs the income, and will tax wherever they can. You thought moving to renewable you will be saving... Nope, your initial financial layout will be...

    "Dire consequences" for SA road users if new law goes through unchanged

    It is fine if they no longer wants to pay for any accidents. Till date my accident from 2007 never got anywhere. Remove those taxes from the fuel then, and allow people to invest in private insurances again. If government cannot manage their funds, it is time to remove those funds from...

    Should prisoners be allowed to vote?

    My answer has always been, you can vote if you pay taxes. This will allow the those who live off government grands not to be sidetracked by empty promises of more grands. Those who pay taxes knows if the money they pay to government is well administrated and can make the voting change when needed.

    Former Eskom senior transmission manager warns of major problems with load limiting

    Load limiting is not the answer. It again just move the problem Eskom has over to the consumer. Also, taking into account a basig stage 1, how much load they need to limit, it actually means that all additional items in a normal home will be permanently turned off to achieve this. Eskom is not...

    9.2 million registered TV Licence holders owe the SABC R44.2 billion

    Maybe it is time for the SABC te respect the public's right to not pay for a service they do not use. The SABC has expired, and either need to close down, or control their broadcast to allow only paying cilustomers access. I have a tv license, but in the last probably 2 or more years not...

    South Africa considers national state of disaster for energy crisis

    This has been the ANC game for a long time now. Cripple SA, so they can call for a state of disaster and then have more power to make changes without opposition parties interfering. This will really then break the country's economy. A State of disaster should be called only if the current...

    The SABC wants TV licences for computer monitors

    Even though I do have a TV license, I am not supporting any SABC channels, nor any media 24 reporting etc. Simply because if you follow the general non-state owned media, you actually get the correct information, not an one sided miss lead topic to make government look good. The SABC can close...
