Why are the ANC and Organised Labour still in Power?
I have always marvelled at how the the ANC and its labour cohorts coalition remains in power despite the total mismanagement, massive corruption and complete failure to uplift the poor in our country. Now I know why! It is completely impossible to unseat this...
What A Year!
2020 has been a year of unbelievable upheaval for our planet and our country. The dominant event that eclipsed everything else was the #Covid 19 pandemic. Never since World War Two has there been a health crisis of that magnitude - and we are all still in it! On the...
#Sharks and Lifesavers
Don't close the beaches. The practice of cramming swimmers into a very small area, bounded by flags is fine for normal times but disastrous in the face of #Covid infection. Cramming people together, who are not wearing masks; whether in the water or out, is inviting...
ANC – Stop Hiding and Face The Music!
Here are some questions that I as a citizen of South Africa must ask: Why, all of a sudden is there a so-called integrity commission in our country, held behind closed doors without media presence; no cameras no public video exposure? How does this hiding away under...

… And Now for your Next Trick – Mr Former President
I can't help but compare the ridiculous posturing and putting off of the inevitable of former #President Zuma with the same tactics of #President Trump trying to avoid the inevitable of relinquishing his position as #United States President. Why do both these heads of...
The people want to know!
Ace Magashule has just handed himself over to the Hawks. This is another watershed moment; not so much because of his alleged misdeeds, but rather because he symbolises a crisis point in the ruling party's ongoing battle between the stalwarts who blindly support the...
America Has Chosen
Joe Biden has triumphed over Donald Trump. This is such an inspirational moment; not just for Biden, but also for women, for all minorities, people of colour and all true religions and creeds around the world. It is a moment of inspiration and hope for all people who...
