Ma'am, you are the mayor, but you are doing the job of the municipal manager. Is that not his/her job to go and see that all the work is being done? Do you have a municipal manager and what is he/she doing whilst you are doing his/her job? When do you do the Mayoring for Pretoria? You are supposed to be co-ordinating the city, not micro-managing people on the ground.

Herman's whole campaign was around badmouthing Helen. He never once told anyone about his plans for JHB or PTA. He said her name in derogatory ways for weeks, so much so that I stopped listening. I hope the ASA voters finish him off in 2029. I naively thought a combination of DA and ASA would keep ANC out, but there he goes, running off with our votes to his ANC masters again. He did this in the last election too. Now the DA has no option but to fight back and that could be ugly. Politics is not a clean game at the best of times. Back stabbing is all par of the game rules. We can now call the ActionSA by its proper name - ANC-lite. Maybe the Oppenheimers won't be so keen to put their money with him next time. He can find some black sponsors instead. Nothing for the white man in a black racist party.
The DA is talking about how they will govern. The ASA is talking about Helen and the DA. ASA is not a serious party.

What is it about South African blacks that they must always try to kill off people in authority? Are they so scared, weak and insecure that they cannot stand by what they have done? Every time someone has to stand up and talk, there is an attempt on their lives, either by murder or suicide. Even grootman Dylan Perumal tried to take his own life yesterday. What was he so scared of at the Madlanga commission? He has been in hiding for months already. He knows he is guilty. scmfazi.co.za/research/poiso…

I would love to see Nasiphim as a municipal manager. The way she runs around checking on people's work, she would be much more suited than mayor. Mayor is much more of an admin job with lots of meetings. She is incredibly hands on with workers.
Replying to @BigDaddyLiberty
I agree. If @nasiphim wants to survive politically, she should quit @Action4SA and join the @Our_DA

ASA runs as a dictatorship, with Herman at the helm. There is no democracy beyond the front door. He can hire and fire internally as he pleases. He runs ASA like a business instead of a democratic political party.
I hold a different view. I’d actually love to see Action South Africa (ASA) finally hold an elective conference to elect its leadership, and for Nasiphi to throw her hat in the ring to lead ASA! Now, wouldn’t that be something. She’s proven to be popular, bandla.

I want to know why Gaza complains that they have no water. Israel has been piping water into Gaza, but they dig up the pipelines to make bombs instead. Why are they talking of people starving? There has been millions of tons of food delivered. Why don't Hamas distribute the food? Instead, they sell it.
I'm a little confused: why could Gaza dig the world's most extensive military tunnel network, but not a sewage system?

I notice that despite all the ASA rantings about Helen, she has not said a single bad word against Herman. She is a truly professional politician. She keeps her emotions in check. Herman flip-flops all over with his emotions and ideologies. Politics is a dynamic game and there are changes all the time. @HelenZille4Jozi
ActionSA, buoyed by its strong showing in Tshwane, Johannesburg and Ekurhuleni, will push the DA to drop Helen Zille as its mayoral candidate for Joburg and give the post to its leader, Herman Mashaba, instead. tinyurl.com/3f726d4k

My daughter does business in Ghana. The airports there are terrible. Bribes are required all over whilst just walking to the security gates. She always has to carry USD in cash for the bribes.
ALLEGATIONS OF EXTORTION INVOLVING SAPS MEMBERS AT OR TAMBO AIRPORT Increasing complaints are emerging about SAPS members based at OR Tambo International Airport stopping and searching people after they have cleared customs within the airport precinct. Even more concerning are allegations that some officers are demanding money from people. These allegations are extremely serious and must be urgently investigated. OR Tambo is South Africa’s main international gateway. It cannot become a place where travellers, visitors or members of the public feel intimidated, harassed or forced to pay bribes. This nonsense must stop! SAPS management must investigate, identify those responsible and take decisive action against any members found to be involved in extortion or abuse of power. There must be zero tolerance for corruption within the ranks of the police. @SAPoliceService @Airports_ZA @ortambo_int

Herman resigned from DA in 2019. He doesn't take criticism from a boss very well. That's what happened. He is used to being his own boss. I really think that Herman must do what he is so good at - hair products. He built that business from nothing to be a great success.
Look at the hate in his face when he speaks about Helen Zille 😂 Herman Mashaba talks about Helen Zille like a man who was dumped in 2016 and is still checking her WhatsApp status in 2026! Gog @helenzille , please tell us what happened. What did you do to this man? 10 years later and the wounds are still fresh! 🤣

Black middle-class families are earning sufficient to pay their rates and taxes. Zille is not out to ruin people. If you cannot afford, then move. I moved when I could not afford the place I stayed.
The DA will push black middle-class families out of Johannesburg suburbs through unaffordable rates and taxes.

Islam is a cult, not a religion. Mo just pinched all the Jewish history and told it like it was his own. People like Ibrahim (Abraham) and Noah were of the Hebrew tribes. They had nothing to do with Arabs. No one "spoke" to Mo other than Satan, who found him to be a willing participant when the Catholics were putting together the Bible as we know it today.
After Mohammed, did Allah speak to any other person in Islam or Allah exclusively spoke to Mohammed only?

Are you happy in the cult?
I was once working in Qatar. I was approached by two Pakistani colleagues who were uncomfortable with my wedding ring. “Men don’t wear gold.” When I explained it is the only piece of gold I wore. One said “wear silver. All Muslim men do.” When I laughed, they continued, “Don’t laugh. If ever you become Muslim you’ll know. Become one. It’s the right thing. Look around. This is a Muslim country. Nobody is poor here. There is wealth. All countries that were walked on by our Prophet are rich. Even Israel.” Then I did something dangerous. “Why is Pakistan poor if it is Islamic?” The other one said, “Because we are neighbors to Hindus.” This shocked me. I excused myself from there immediately and avoided any more of this conversation. Complaint would not have helped me. They would have sided with my colleagues. Thankfully, I had to bear only three more days there. Since returning to India, I have never gone back to a Muslim country since.

I was also reading about political killings this morning. amabhungane.org/xolobeni-the…
I am busy watching unreported world and channel 4 news; South African contract killers. Today they are talking about the hit that was made to Mpho Mafole the Internal Audtitor at Ekurhuleni. His mother is no longer herself and I wish people who works as Izinkabi they can see how they destroys families with what they do for living; killing other people. Families get destroyed and when we celebrate when the ANC loses elections after watching this documentary you’d even wish that ANC doesn’t exist anymore. Mpho’s mother doesn’t even attend the court case of her own son because she says when he was murder she died with him and it’s painful. Politicians must know that they have destroyed families with their businesses they look after. One of the contract killers says he doesn’t even know who issue the hit all they do is to take out someone as long as there is money and they indicate that by the time they find him you will find that there is more than 6 middle people to the client who issue the hit because it’s a crime syndicates that it is also including politicians and police. Guys this is painful to watch

Well done, Sir. I hope he got the curry in his eyes. What a waste of a perfectly good curry. But seriously - I am glad you are OK. I am also a survivor of a home attack. Blessings from one pensioner to another.
A pensioner in Watson in KZN, was attacked in his home this afternoon. An unknown attacker came in through his door and hit him with a heavy prayer object. The pensioner threw a hot potato curry over the attacker and moered him with the pot. The attacker fled.

I think the ASA voters will drop Mashaba after this. No 2029 election for this man. Imagine if it had gone another way. Please his voters and he would have been in line for the presidency in 2029. But instead he let his petty hate for whites get in his head.
I feel sick to the stomach while watching ASA turn a serious election outcome end mandate from desperate people into a school boy loo fight. JHB can't handle another 5 years of this.

Are these deductions before or after tax?
Know how much Julius Malema lost after 417 councillors lost their jobs. Councillors earn plus or minus R30 000 After tax they carry home plus or minus R26 000. EFF councillors were forced to donate 40% of that salary = R10 400. -10 400 ×417 = 4 336 800. This is R4.3 million, ( monthly)

So when the Eastern Cape and the Western Cape were all just the Cape Province before 1994, the ANC wanted it separated, despite the fact that we didn't. Now you want to join them back together again? The Western Cape has thrived, so now you want to break it?
South Africa cannot allow a province to operate as if it is above the nation. Merging the Western Cape with the Eastern Cape into one province will restore national unity, shut down the foreign-driven Cape Exit movement, and send a clear message that secession will not be tolerated.

Remember this: Islam is a satanic cult, not a religion. He is not safe, even from his own family. They will kill him if they get the chance. There is no natural love for a child in Islam. No wanting the child to be happy and succeed. Keep him safe for now. I will pray for him. Be blessed.
I need help. My son has a friend who recently converted from Islam. Last night things escalated in their home very quickly and friend had to make a quick exit. We took in this friend but this person is young and isolated. Does anyone have any suggestions for ministries or programs in California that help ppl trying to leave Islam? I am at a loss but this is a scary situation.
