The irony:
A 26-year-old journalist named Helen Zille, yes - that one, is the one who broke the story on Steve Biko’s death, leading to Biko’s actual autopsy report being part of court evidence.

It's all very painful to watch. We are about to not see big reform in South Africa, simply, exclusively, and only, because Herman Mashaba as an individual feels personally aggrieved. That's it. It's beyond cringeworthy.
@HermanMashaba has authoritarian tendances, especially regarding foreigners, and he is remarkably thin skinned for someone with his achievements.
But agree that he isn't ideological.
His party has an opportunity to establish itself as a serious opposition with good ideas.
But given the current behaviour, he might just end up squandering it.

The ANC thought we were joking about the illegal immigration issue.
Come 2029 elections, we are going to make sure the ANC is dead for good

I’ll never forget when Zuma’s buddies at Eskom gave Guptas R659m to “buy”substandard coal Eskom couldn’t use. The Guptas then used that money to plug R600m shortfall in their purchase of Optimum Coal Mine (where Duduzane held a 19% stake) after banks had refused to finance them😭

South Africa's Rele Mofokeng has created the most chances in the UEFA Europa League so far this season with 15 for Union Saint-Gilloise.

This shows us we did well by not voting for you! You clearly don’t know the power municipalities hold!
Border control and immigration policy are National Government responsibilities.
A municipality and/or Ward Councillor does not have any power to control our borders nor order deportations.
The people of South Africa will soon discover that political parties which campaigned on those promises in the Local Government Elections promised powers that municipalities do not possess.
All these dishonest parties simply played with the emotions and vulnerabilities of our people.
Voting is done now. The question you must ask the party you voted for is; will they close the border? The answer is NO!

This is the first election in which the South African electorate has meaningfully rejected the National Democratic Revolution bloc.
If this is repeated in 2029, and they get around 50% or ideally lower, we would finally be ending an era of immense political danger.
We should not wait. Build meaningful authority outside of formal politics in your community.

CLASSIC! 😂😂😂
The claim that Zimbabweans are more educated than South Africans is FALSE! 🔥
Prince Mashele shuts it down in minutes with solid facts. DJ Sbu can't believe what he's hearing! 🤣

That’s just one part of the reason why electricity is unaffordable. Comrades use the Eskom account as it was their private casino account, then insist to recoup losses from citizens. Accountability is a swear word among ANC parasites…
[ICYMI] Following an 18-month investigation, Eskom concedes it made R3-billion in irregular payments to diesel suppliers.
AmaBhungane’s investigation alleged that Eskom made at least R3-billion in prepayments to little-known suppliers who were struggling to deliver enough diesel to Ankerlig when the country was faced with loadshedding in 2025.
While Eskom’s 7-page press release did not use the word “prepayments”, it did refer to “advanced payments” and what it calls “payments outside of the contractual terms”.

I did not vote for ActionSA to help amplify your ego. Put the voters first! I had hoped you would approach the coalition talks with political maturity. Don't make me regret my vote. @HermanMashaba @Action4SA @ME_Beaumont @AtholT

You may be surprised, but I actually do respect ASA.
A lot of those within it are people I’m acquainted with and even used to work with.
This doesn’t mean they should be above scrutiny.
ASA has a very important role to play in SA society.
Please Sihle respect @Action4SA u are now driving Unnecessary agenda against the party @HermanMashaba was explaining how @Our_DA step at the back my the party.

Malema doesn’t want to be called to order it’s a sign that once he becomes president he will be exactly like Mnangagwa and Mugabe.

Julius Malema wants the ANC to fire Cyril Ramaphosa for poor election results, but he himself doesn't want the EFF to fire him for the same reason.

Hijacked buildings is the main reason why Johannesburg is collapsing but the politicians are acting oblivious to that .
