I activated my X account a few weeks ago to follow the elections - I’m reminded again why I deactivated it last year. The vile racism, spewing of hatred comments to people. Hiding behind “verified” paid blue tick accounts with profile pictures of Lions and old leaders.

We need to normalise mentioning the name 'ANC' when telling stories about the economic and deeply personal impact of blackouts- such as a child dying because of lack of oxygen when an inverter runs out of backup power.
The effects of blackouts aren't random natural events. They are the foreseeable consequences of corruption, state capture, technocratic ineptitude, and unethical and ineffectual leadership *by the ANC-misled government."
Make it a habit to tie the story of Eskom to the ANC.
The awful thing about not having a government you trust is not knowing if the crises you experience are genuine, or orchestrated to create opportunities for more looting.
The knock-on multiplier effects are so stupendous. Once you rob a nation of hope, the future is stolen

Most concerning is the belief - across the political spectrum - that you have to pick a side and demonstrate abject, unquestioning loyalty to that side’s ideology and perspectives.
So attack anything you don’t agree with and never critique your own perspectives.
It’s so damaging.

There was no valid reason for the ship to turn off its AIS transponder in South African waters, which ships are not supposed to be allowed to do.
The government can’t complain that people are treating the ship’s visit with suspicion when every single step was deeply suspicious.

Nothing in this statement affirms that no weapons were sold. The apology seems to be about FORM AND PROCESS & not a retraction of the CONTENT of his claims.
Question: Did the minister pointedly ask him for evidence, and did he sustain his claim in the grip of such a question?
The meeting between USA Ambassador to South Africa @ReubenBrigety and @DIRCO_ZA
took place this afternoon. We conveyed our displeasure with his conduct and he admitted that he crossed the line and apologised unreservedly. The relations between the USA & South Africa are cordial, strong and mutually beneficial. We reaffirmed our commitment to continue to work together for the benefit of the people of the two countries. There's a commitment to use established diplomatic channels to raise whatever issue may arise in the management of the bilateral relations between the two countries. Minister Naledi Pandor also spoke to her counterpart, Secretary @SecBlinken. As previously stated, the National Conventional Arms Control Committee has not approved any sale of arms to Russia related to the period and incident in question. The inquiry initiated by HE President Cyril Ramaphosa will be a platform to establish facts and role players in the incident in question. Anyone found to have broken the law will face consequences.
