How dare you disparage the ANC.

What is a housing opportunity?

A opportunity to be housed.

A opportunity to be housed.

Like being on the waiting list?

Like being on the waiting list?

To be given a place to live.

I saw some pictures of the CBD, it looked good, no idea how far the hawkers went with their court challenge but hope they were successfully repelled, they are the ones creating a thriving environment of lawlessness, they should play by the rules or be dealt with.

To be given a place to live.

My experience is that once politicians start using fancy terms things are usually not what they seem to be.

It's either you have built a house or you haven't, a housing opportunity sounds too much like a job opportunity.

I am also not sold on the 26 000 potholes, they should try maintaining roads, instead of counting potholes, especially since the repairs are such poor quality.

What is a housing opportunity?

I think it's either RDP houses or mixed-housing stuff. I did see Abel Tau giving deeds and **** a while ago.

I wouldn't be surprised if EFF and ANC coalesce in GP. Ekhuruleni and Mogale City would then be at risk for the UF.

They disbanded the entire council...

So i.e. LGE for Ditsobotla. The UF has received another chance to win a council.

The odds seem to lean to the UF already with the ANC on 51%. Now to just actually win. I wonder if ASA will contest (they would be dumb not to).

Good question; that whole thing went quite. I haven't been to CBD in years. Might take a trip one day, when I am really bored.
