Turn the light on.We can only hope. But they're cockroaches. Even if they can't win legitimately I really wouldn't put it past them to find another way.

Yeah. The ANC has little hope of winning outright. By-elections in KZN, SA's 2nd province, shows the ANC rapidly losing ground to the IFP (ANC got like 65% of vote in 2014 when Zuma was president). Also they just got a majority in Gauteng in 2019, you'd expect an urban province to further shift from the ANC, especially due to loadshedding. So ANC in big trouble in SA's two most populous provinces.I've always said this about parties like the ANC and EFF. They're a cult. There are people who are so deeply indoctrinated.
The ANC could come to their house and burn it down and they'd stand there praising their fire building skill.
But I don't think they can win outright. They don't even think they can. But they'll still control a coalition.
You must have missed the tweets where voters still say only the ANC can fix this. I have my doubts anything will change in the next elections, but will happily be proved wrong. Lets see.
Guys - Power Alerts, not political power struggles, perhaps start a new thread for that?
Yeah but tomorrow I have 5-7 then 13 - 15 and again 16-17 before 21-23.....stupid hour! I hope the guy that does the switching also say to himself...screw that, its happy hour at the margate hotelStage 4 feels like a luxury after the ravages of Stage 6...
Maybe. The return of industry for the year hasn't been.. so far.Winter is gonna be rough
Winter demand can shoot up to 35GW, summer demand sits around 30GW.Maybe. The return of industry for the year hasn't been.. so far.
Why are you bothered by that? We haven't gone above stage 6, despite people saying "Stage 8 is imminent" being shouted for many years now.was just reading the article on the news section about what stage 20 could look like. I shudder at the thought.
only a matter of timeWhy are you bothered by that? We haven't gone above stage 6, despite people saying "Stage 8 is imminent" being shouted for many years now.
I wonder what the difference between late December and now is with industry. Would think much more than 5 GW.Winter demand can shoot up to 35GW, summer demand sits around 30GW.
From 2018? Pretty sure is has had lots of time to happen but didn't happen yet.only a matter of time

Most massive cuts we've heard of (AFAIK) in this thread is Zim - recently was 4 hours power per day, 20 hours without. Wonder what that stage is..was just reading the article on the news section about what stage 20 could look like. I shudder at the thought.
Eish, that's bad...4 hours power per day
I say our cadres can improve on that, 2 hours per day is the way! WHENMost massive cuts we've heard of (AFAIK) in this thread is Zim - recently was 4 hours power per day, 20 hours without. Wonder what that stage is..
If we're heading for disaster, that's the benchmark. IF
