I don't really want to test the new stage 6 schedules thank you very much

I don't really want to test the new stage 6 schedules thank you very much

It's needed so the ANC and minister of loadshedding can campaign for the opposition for elections next year.

Stage 4 will basically be stage 6. I mean the brightness of the CP people who came up with that schedule.

Shame man, that's a little bit too desperate.

Every little bit helps. Like the EAF going up 2%.

Logic
1. They've been trying to come up with a good solution for ages
2. They made a big fuss about this

Brightness?
This is planned, any good intentions got overridden. Strong Jo'burg must shoulder any potential burdens, and socialist plans must move forward.
They implemented it as quickly as humanly possible - near no notice and in the middle of the night, like thieves.


What do you think @TheChamp ?

How's this coming along?

Like many ANC projects, it doesn't progress further unless tendas and lots of gravy is poured into the trough
