Who are the other panel members? I assume Madonsela is the one close to WMC? Somehow because she works at Stellenbosch university?The EFF's take on the panel.
'Busi for chief justice' ... what Cyril gets for asking the public to help out
And according to the Economic Freedom Fighters, Ramaphosa's process is flawed because of his choice of members of the panel.www.citizen.co.za
She was our darling one time. But, collectively, we on myBB don't like her anymore. I can't recall why.
Thanks Jimmy, we are thrilled to have you here. Minority judgement I suppose ?
I don't know the other members but the EFF will have a problem with whoever is on the panel, they also had similar concerns with the panel that shortlisted Kieswetter.
Sjoe no token white guy.....
What are you insinuating?
Have some self-respect. None of us think you are token just because you have been selected to work somewhere.
When you don't care about colour and want people to be selected on merit.
No doubt we will hear of a real life story of him being not selected somewhere despite having multiple PhD's in multiple sciences. Because Obama & BLM you know.When you don't care about colour and want people to be selected on merit.
I think she moved to the populist ANC camp; pushing for a BIG and maybe wealth (solidarity ha ha) tax, wanting money for schools etc, excusing the wastrel ANC?
It sounds familiar. I can only imagine the hurt it must have caused to super wealthy myBB members when she talked about wealth tax.
To be fair, she's always pushed for the things you mentioned. However, since she was fighting the big bad wolf, they were overlooked.
Same WhatsApp group. These should be the candidates:

Maybe but I seem to remember she was quite hard on a certain Mr J Zuma of the ANC. Cyril and pretty much the same lot of ANC looters get a free pass now - rather get / replace the (stolen) cash with another rear end injection from taxpayers. Seems a good plan.

Will the next Chief Justice be a woman? - Judges Matter
The appointment of a woman as Chief Justice is a prospect that ought to be taken very seriously. South Africa has never had a woman Chief Justice.
It will have to be a relatively new judge at the ConCourt like Leona Theron or a completely new judge appointed to ConCourt and made Chief Justice at the same time like Mandisa Maya who's the current head of SCA. This is mainly because the constitution says ConCourt judges must leave the court after 12 years to make space for fresh minds. If Khampepe or Zondo are made Chief Justice, then it will only be for a year or two since they both have to retire soon.

Looks like Khampepe is due to leave the court next month along with Jafta and Mogoeng as they were all appointed 12 years ago in October 2009:At this time, the JSC still needs to conduct their new interviews. There two vacancies in the ConCourt, and the short-list has already been published,

The same group as the last time, but this time without... and as Mandonsela remarked,
JSC is self-correcting, says Madonsela
Advocate Thuli Madonsela says the JSC is course correcting after some commissioners tried to “almost” bargain with judges
but there is still the likelihood that the selection would go the exact same as the last time.
The only real change to the nomination list is Judge Dhaya Pillay moved to the KwaZulu-Natal high court short-list.
In my view, Judge Leona Theron is a Zuma loyalist, and it is a historical assumption I have made.
From my perspective, the Courts are being steered to being in a collective mind in regard to state policy. The commissioners didn't hide this in their interviews.
I would still nominate Khampepe, even though it would be temporary, I believe it requires an authoritative person to calm the turbulence. At late Mogoeng Mogoeng became troubled with his own personal position within a volatile climate. I still like him, though, but his position became politically tainted, and I can understand why he has taken leave.
