Ban on alcohol and cigarettes in South Africa

[IndigoIdentity]

A lengthy post that just happens to not include the specific part I asked for that support your claim?

And yes, it is your job to provide sources to the claims you make, that's how this forum works.

Do you even read at all or just write?

Intriguingly, NDZ has not denied it though:

NDZ refuses to comment on campaign funding - NEWS & ANALYSIS | Politicsweb

Nothing will move her to comment, says rep

Why so cagey if you have little to hide?

Last time I checked it was okay to protect the identity of your funders, even the most righteous party in South African politics has kept the identity of it's funders a closely guarded secret.

The Super Luxe History of Pineapples—And Why They Used to Cost $8000

Long before you could buy them by the can, only the extremely wealthy could afford pineapples. Monarchs such as Louis XV and Catherine the Great enjoyed eating the sweet fruit, which came to symbolize luxury and opulence.

In the American colonies in the 1700s, pineapples were no less revered. Imported from the Caribbean islands, pineapples that arrived in America were very expensive—one pineapple could cost as much as $8000 (in today’s dollars). This high cost was due to the perishability, novelty, exoticism, and scarcity of the fruit.

Edit: Was meant for the booze thread...

'Cigarette ban backfiring with 7 million smokers against government decision'

In order to navigate through their subjective stress and anger, smokers are left with very few options. Either ration current stock, quit smoking or source tobacco illegally.

Mostly to point and laugh.

He's fascinated by us idiots

Only if you were one of those idiots making stuff up, yes. Would you consider yourself to be one of those?
Also, that screenshot says 4 mins old. Pretty sure that comment is weeks old at this point. Did...did you screenshot that and keep it?

Lockdown Level 4: Urgent court application to stop schools reopening struck off roll

The Polokwane High Court in Limpopo has struck an urgent application off the roll that sought to prevent the Department of Basic Education from reopening schools under Level 4 of the national lockdown.

www.news24.com

The court said that it lacked the jurisdiction, and no order was made regarding costs.

This does not bode well for FITA and BAT if they dismiss this action so easily.

This corrupt, thieving ANC and it's supporters are way overdue for a solid kick in the pants. The sooner the better. I'm over these assholes.

Precisely... the local stock has dried up now, but the international shyte will start flowing at even higher prices now...

FITA needs the court win to get local smokes back into the black market
