[Nom Chompsky]

Instead of protesting vote out the ANC.

Oh wait, that's too much common sense...

The ANC was voted out in 2016... so what you saying? We can't give the DA run metro 25 years to get things right, how long do we give them?

Good question, especially considering their efforts are being frustrated by provincial and national government - for example, Human Settlements budgets slashed, NPA not pursuing cases handed to them by the city's forensic services.

Felling of trees i can understand but trimming ? thats effed up bureaucracy , while rates are just lining their pockets.

Yup I know, though some people just do it and hope for the best. But there have been a few R5000 fines given.

The biggest issue is that the Metro is controlled by the DA, but provincial is still ANC, so therefore ANC still gets to cripple the DA metros budget.

Ironic that the supporters of land invasions are protesting against land invasions.

Nothing in there says the protestors are supporters of land invasions. They seem to be opposing invasions

Other peoples land invasions are the problem... theirs are required and justified

 

[Jet-Fighter7700]

Because many people live there. Don't be racist.

problem is most people want to hop on and off the train , not contend with upteen taxis and garbage piled up high at the entrance of the gautrain

 

[WaxLyrical]

Do they ever know what they want?

Free land and houses with wata and powa.

You saying they dont support land expropriation which is a form of invasion?

 

[neoprema]

I wonder if they originally occupied the Alex land legally, back in 19whatever?

 

[Solarion]

Community members have accused the City of Johannesburg of failing to stop the mushrooming of illegal structures in the township.

Hmmm I love the smell of elections.

Racists don't deserve services, they deserve jail, like Vicky Momberg right?
