Covid isnt killing them quickly enough, you suggesting make Smallpox or Ebola virulent and real?

If you're prepared to be the infection vector, go for it.

God hasn’t left Africa, we have left him. And the further we stray, the more we are forsaken.

You run after your god then. Leave me out of it. And when the hordes loot your home you can run after them apologising for your white privilege. Maybe they will have pity and give your doors and window frames back.

Yeah I know, it just really baffles me that its even considered acceptable from a legal standpoint that an entity that owns the land, must now make plans to relocate people who have invaded the land and are impacting operations.

A colleague I worked with had family who owned a farm with stables and cattle. The land was invaded, the cattle was killed, the horses were killed and the stables were stripped bare. The family eventually just moved to Portugal as the law did nothing.

Just listen to yourselves. Where has our humanity gone?

Necklaced, burned down & looted into oblivion..

Maybe the ANC should start a humanity committee next since the integrity one isn't working..

Send in the loco's.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

When are they going to get rid of all the tent cities in ct? It's just a bunch of hookers, druggies and gangsters living in them anyway. All on prime realestate, making life miserable for the people who pay to live there. They should really make a no camping law and confiscate all the tents and destroy them.

They tried that with the Moral Regeneration one created by our most upstanding member of society, Jacob.

Prasa granted extension to relocate Langa railway squatters​

Cape Town - The High Court in the Western Cape has granted the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa (Prasa) an extension for the lawful relocation of residents illegally occupying its property along the Langa railway lines.

Prasa spokesperson Andiswa Makanda, said the extension was from November 26 to July 31, 2022 to allow for further consultations with affected communities.

Prasa approached the court in July, seeking to regain its portion of land, erf 114 412, which it said was essential for its operations and the resumption of train services along the relevant corridor and route.

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNKKKK

SA National Civic Organisation provincial chairperson Bongikhaya Qhama said their view had always been that the community consultation process should be a process of persuasion and understanding.
"The affected communities are law abiding citizens who understand the importance and suffering of communities due to unavailability of trains, particularly in the central line.

“Living in the railway line is a solution, but rather out of growing demands for land and housing, our people opt for any space that can be occupied regardless of dangerous living conditions," Qhama said.

This type of person is why socialists need their free helicopter rides. It doesn't understand that said railway line actually operating on the property that has been bought for it would allow more people to find jobs. More people who have jobs will mean they can enter the formal housing market.

And they are law abiding citizens. If they were, they wouldn't be removed from squatting.

Macassar residents say no to relocation of Prasa rail dwellers to the area

Cape Town - Macassar residents are opposing a possible relocation to their area of shack dwellers from Khayelitsha who had occupied Prasa land, citing crime.

No site has currently been purchased in Macassar to relocate these illegal occupants, but the residents have started a petition to Prasa, and the Housing Development Agency (HDA), to immediately cease efforts to secure private land to relocate the illegal occupants now living on their railway reserve.

Human Settlements mayoral committee member Malusi Booi said several land parcels were being investigated and no site had been acquired in Macassar. Booi said the land parcels were zoned “agricultural”.

Community leader and author of the petition, Waseemah Flaendorp, said crime was a major issue in the area and the community was already under strain with an under-resourced police station.

Flaendorp said unemployment in the area had also reached a new high with municipal infrastructure, in many cases, under pressure.

Deja vu? This has been happening in the Eastern Cape since the early 1800's.

Complaining about crime, while committing a crime.

African mentality.

Do not worry, the almighty socialist DA will give every shack dweller a brand new flat in the CBD.

The railway line just like a national road is governments problems and not the municipalities, nice try though.

Nice try for you also since the DA is the 1 allocating rate payers money to provide free houses and services to the poor, and the great socialist DA is the reason all the poor is in the Cape in the 1st place.

Yes they are there because the chance of survival is better than under the anc

So you agree it is the DA creating the socialist utopia for the poor in the Cape. The DA is pro poor so the DA must give them houses and free services, this what the DA is promising. SA is so far off the cliff on the left, you commit a crime that can be seen as treason or even terrorism and you get a new free house with free services.
