The only thing the ANC is working on is TOE
Their
Own
Ego!!!!!
Cut off the SA Human Rights Commission – that has now deleted their financial report after it was exposed on the web that most of its budget went to paying salaries (R202m) and only R20m was available for real action. And just what is that “ACTION” supposed to be? Why does it even exist – other than to imprison white people who insult blacks whilst allowing the malemas of this world to keep on saying one settler one bullet.
What the “politicians” discuss about this country is confidential.. thats hilarious
Thank you Mark, this is true. We all know that ANC is an organization of scavengers but please fight to the core
Why are Cabinet a Confidential forum? We pay them and they work for the Public, so my opinion is that the public has a right to know what is discussed.
Good luck getting commies to deregulate, decentralise or reduce government size
If these setas worked effectively SA would have many qualified artisans yet it’s not the case.
Cyril wont cut expenses less money for Tenderpreneur cadres, they are protected and corruption wil continue until we are totally BANCRUPT. DA CANT DO NOTHING THAT WIL MOVE THESE CROOKS.
Downsizing government, cutting expenditure, not increasing taxes and deregulation are what you do with a bad economy to make it better. It’s what we need
The ministers and deputies all come with an entourage of blue lights, cars and housing perks etc
Thus R50m is a bit ingenious
