Your only interest is to line your pockets, nothing the ANC does is for the people's interest, not now not 26 years ago, not ever.

And you do not have to take an interest in my health thank you very much I will rather take my chances with a rabid plague carrying hyena before I entrust my well being to any of you lot.

Just more ammo for the courts against them... if it was about health, there is a very long list of things that need to be banned before 'tobacco'

I think the ban is there out of pure spite - if cigs are only allowed to be sold in supermarkets where there is control over queues and hand sanitization in place and so forth, I really do not see a problem. Can anyone point to the problem? No, again I say , its pure spite.

CR has lost the plot under the pressure he's getting from the slug and her Zumaist collaborators.

First he said the decision to extend the ban on tobacco products was not an attempt by the slug trying to undermine him but a decision by the collective.

Now he says their only conern is for the peoples' health.

Therefore the only conclusion is that the collective's sole reason for the extended ban on tobacco is their concern for the peoples' health.

If that is going to be their defence in any upcoming court cases they are screwed.

Didn't any of their advisors explain to them the effects of obesity on the human body yet sweets, chips and sugary cooldrinks are considered essential.

Council for FITA and BATSA must be licking their lips.

And should the courts find the ban was unjust and without merit all smokers should start a class action and sue them for infringing their rghts enshrined in Chapter 2 of our constitution.

Maybe it's time someone remind them of the Freedom Charter.

The people shall govern you power drunk bunch of parasitic excrement.
