We have two by-elections today although both are relatively boring. Both by-elections are in the Thembisile Hani municipality located in Mpumalanga - the home province of coal king and complete idiot Gwede "Gweezy" Mantashe. Fortunately for the ANC, this municipality does not border KZN and therefore they are under no threat from the MK here. I expect two safe holds for the ANC.

I promise I won't cry if they are replaced with people with similar qualities and significance who have links to the DA

That's not my problem. My problem is that all the politically aligned people are somehow either ANCs, disgruntled DAs or good friends of Rama...
Agreed, these would all be praise singers, this is no dialogue.

If you want a dialogue, you have to include the contradicting views, as difficult as that may be. This panel is an exercise in confirmation bias.
 
I generally see this "National Dialogue" thing as a pointless waste of time where some people will skim some funds because they couldn't get a seat in Parliament or whatever, and nothing of any value will come from it, or if anything of any value (good or bad) does come from it, it will be ignored anyway.

Squirrel is turning into the worst kind of populist where he THINKS he knows what the public wants, but in reality is doing the exact opposite of what they want.
Bunch of cadres having a circle jerk.
 
Gauteng has ~3.5x the wealth of the WC , but only half the infrastructure budget
Gauteng should have ~3.5x the infrastructure budget of the WC
So in effect Gauteng has 1/7th of the infrastructure budget they should be doing compared to the WC

Go figure who cares more about their citizens ....

But Khayelitsha brother, and Hammanskraal.

Clearly the GLM cares more cos like you know, Panty.
