Budget Speech suspended over 2% VAT hike

National Treasury has postponed Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana's Budget Speech until an undetermined date in March, with Cabinet locked in discussions about proposed tax increases.

It had been proposed to increase the value-added tax (VAT) from 15% to 17% from 1 April 2025. National Speaker Thoko Didiza adjourned the event, saying Cabinet couldn't agree on the budget.

So you hang around with other people equally as deluded as yourself?

Yeah we know, old news pal.

The ANC rules because we collectively DON'T hold each other accountable for spreading lies and misinformation. If you spread deluded nonsense, you are delusional.

EDIT: Calling a liar a liar is not a personal attack.

Looks like you were referring to yourself. You owe OP an apology.

Shame the ANC is really struggling lately with their poor decisions.

And from this day forward thou shall be known as the liar.

@dontcryforme are you happy?

 

[RedViking]

And from this day forward thou shall be known as the liar.

I don't think this is necessary. This is exactly how the ANC operates. They unite in corruption, incompetence, stealing and destruction, knowing the rest will tear each other apart out of frustration.

 

[RunningFromFat]

A lot of you owe @dontcryforme an apology. Start now.

 

[Y'all Qaeda]

Budget cancelled - they can't agree how to divide up the money between themselves...

Just think of all the money spent on getting broadcast.

A lot of you owe @dontcryforme an apology. Start now.

You live in a strange place

 

[Unreal]

Is your good authority your local street WhatsApp group?

There is no way that they will increase VAT by 2%, 1% at the most.

We were 5 minutes away from having that happen. It’s not that far fetched to imagine.

 

[Sworaxe]

Running out of other people's money to give way.

I don't owe them an apology

Well, we certainly dodged multiple bullets there (or should that be bullet points?) - I was hoping to be kept VERY busy over in the 'whingers' thread for the next few days...
