    ANC BEE policy stops 5,000 rural schools in South Africa from getting free internet connectivity from Elon Musk’s Starlink

    What history is showing that polls are 'wildly' inaccurate? In the last election most polls predicted the final outcome within 3 percent. I agree that polls are only a snapshot of feelings at the time the polls were taken but this close to the election they are becoming more believable. This...

    ANC BEE policy stops 5,000 rural schools in South Africa from getting free internet connectivity from Elon Musk’s Starlink

    After next Wednesday almost all metros will no longer be under ANC control and in most cases the DA will be the biggest party in these metros. The ANC's support is declining, and it will soon be reduced to a rural party with little influence in the bigger cities. This trend will continue and...

    No bottle. Are you not following the news, or are you one of those who gets his news from social media?

    ANC BEE policy stops 5,000 rural schools in South Africa from getting free internet connectivity from Elon Musk’s Starlink

    The ANC is already no longer the biggest party and after next Wednesday will probably fall to close to or under 30 percent. So, there are no dreams in that pipe.

    ANC BEE policy stops 5,000 rural schools in South Africa from getting free internet connectivity from Elon Musk’s Starlink

    The ANC is not going to be in power for much longer. When Trump goes, so will the ANC. The new government after the 2029 South African general elections will allow Musk to bring in his Starlink.

    Contamination crisis hits South Africa’s capital – 22 more areas urged to boil water before drinking

    The DA led administration appointed a dubious BEE company to fix the water plant. They were probably trying to adhere to the dubious laws of the land. As with all projects started by BEE companies, the work was never finished. If a proper company was appointed to do the work, there would not...

    How will you sell your car?

    The type of car I like becomes unaffordable once it is out of its five-year maintenance plan and I will therefore be forced to trade it in and buy a new one when the time comes.

    How will you sell your car?

    Yes, for a person who likes fixing things that is the perfect car (as long as you have another car that you can actually use every day)

    The 87-year-old woman evicted from her home in Spain has died

    I feel your pain but I am afraid your woes are only just starting. I would not wish your Prime Minister on anyone.

    The 87-year-old woman evicted from her home in Spain has died

    I think you are cherry picking facts from history. You forgot to include the fact that Thatcher had to rebuild the UK after Labour's devastating policies and how she broke the back of trade unions that destroyed the British car industry and caused the de-industrialisation of the UK. Regardless...

    The 87-year-old woman evicted from her home in Spain has died

    Another young student. In South Africa the ANC's particular brand of socialism is already running out of other people's money.

    Maybe I understand communism better. After all, it has been tried in a lot of countries and it failed. Or its offspring socialism - you know, that thing of which Margeret Thatcher said : The only problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money. Or Winston Chrchill...

    Why does your reference to 'capitalist' make me think you are a student or an older person who never learned to understand economics?

    Steve Hofmeyr: I voted yes for the new South Africa but it was a mistake

    Or maybe that was the reason electricity was only distributed to certain areas prior to 1994. All communities in rural areas had to content with less development prior to 1994. Now all communities everywhere looks in horror at the general decay around them.
