The six people that attended all agreed. Orange doesn't look good on you.
Brett Herron, GOOD’s Cape Town mayoral candidate, outlined how the city can address the cost-of-living crisis, unaffordable housing, unemployment and unequal service delivery. He highlighted practical ways the City could create jobs, including employing security guards directly, appointing local park attendants and turning underused community centres into employability skills hubs. GOOD’s pledges for An Affordable City, A Housed City, A Working City and An Equitable City focus on reducing financial pressure, expanding access to housing, creating employment opportunities and ensuring residents receive the same standard of infrastructure and services, regardless of where they live. #GOODParty #BrettHerron #CapeTown #LGE2026 #fyp

Italy today. Students in Milan. All with the tricolor in hand. Flags, flares, pride. They are here to protect Milan. And they shout: "Milan is ours!" This is Italy making itself heard.

The DA-run CoCT has, arguably, done more to uplift informal areas than any other Metro in the country. Its record is superb. If you vote for any other party in the Metro on Nov. 4, know that you are voting for, an at least short term, downturn in such delivery.

xitter.cf/CricketAndre/status/17… Evidence is all here. There is more.
To the 'but Khayaletsha' crowd (again). The DA did not implement Apartheid. Structural inequality is real. Poverty is real. There will always be people living in shacks and always be people living in mansions. See Venezuela, China and the US for examples (1)

Four police officers pulled up to a teenager's house at 8:30 AM. They dragged him out of bed. Searched him in front of his neighbors. Seized his phone. Seized his laptop. Took him to the station. Collected his DNA. Collected his fingerprints. Took his mugshot. Locked him in a cell. His crime. He Photoshopped rabbit ears onto a local councillor's photo. Posted it on Facebook. That was the offense. Simon Bennett is a Conservative councillor in Wolverhampton. Fraser is a 15-year-old Reform UK supporter. Fraser made fun of Bennett's attire. Called him a "rent boy." Made a joke about rabbits eating away Wolverhampton Conservatives' credibility. Bennett complained to police. Police took it seriously. Four officers. Two cars. One teenager. One rabbit edit. West Midlands Police never explained why four officers were necessary. Never explained the legal basis for the arrest. Never explained why DNA was needed for a Photoshop joke. They just took his DNA and told him later that his comments could be considered a hate crime. A hate crime. Against a politician. Using a rabbit filter. The Free Speech Union is suing for wrongful arrest and false imprisonment. Their statement: "A Conservative councillor thought he could use West Midlands Police as his personal tool to silence comments he disliked." Meanwhile London rapes are up. Knife crime is up. Grooming gangs operate freely. But a 15-year-old making fun of a councillor's shorts. That required four officers and a DNA swab. Britain solved its real crime problems. So now the police arrest children for bad Photoshop jobs.
JUST IN: UK police arrest 15 y/o boy, seize his devices, & collect his DNA after he posted photo of a local politician edited to look like a rabbit.

Italy. Milan now. Italian soldiers, trained for war, protecting Milan Cathedral. A symbol of Christianity in Europe and in Italy.

E.macron affirme que c'est la premiere fois qu'l y'a un acte terroriste commis par un français visant des enfanrs français en raison de leur religion. C'est faux.

French nationalists take to the streets as their nation descends into chaos. As unrest spreads and Macron’s government struggles to maintain control, the people of France rise to demand what is rightfully theirs: a future shaped by their own people, for their people.

Wow. This compilation. The German police do not mess around. They know what a Nazi uprising looks like. They won’t let it happen again. They know that “Free Palestine” is the new Heil Hitler.

Radio Islam. Why even appear. There is a strain of person in this country that cares more about goings on in the chaotic Middle East than South Africa. Mind boggles.
RADIO ISLAM asks the DA moyaral candidate 2 questions: - Will you congratulate Navi Pillay? - Will you officially receive Netanyahu if he comes to Durban? When did being aligned with 🇵🇸 become a requirement for taking office in South Africa?

Islamic Extremism. It has a long history in the Middle East.
À la mémoire de mes 58 camarades parachutistes @11eBP assassinés à #Beyrouth le 23 octobre 1983 par le #Hezbollah aux ordres de l’ #Iran.🫡🇫🇷 En union de pensée avec les 241 Marines 🇺🇸@USMC assassinés le même jour.

The Christian minority in the Middle East has been under siege for close on 1,300 years due to Islamic conquest.
Deeply saddened by the horrific terrorist attack at a Greek Orthodox church in Jordan, leaving at least 7 dead and 34 injured. Where is the international outrage? Where are the protests? Where are the celebrities and human rights activists who have something to say about EVERY incident in Israel and Gaza? Christians are being slaughtered and persecuted across the Middle East, yet the world is largely silent. We see the hypocrisy.

How refreshing.
As an Arab & Muslim, let me spell it out: no peace until we cut out the terrorist cancer, The Muslim brotherhood, the Mullas in Tehran and political Islam. Wipe them out!

Muchos mensajes, análisis y comentarios como este, asegurando que las pandillas de Haití no son como las de El Salvador; que son sanguinarias, que están fuertemente armadas, que nadie ha podido vencerlas, que todas las misiones han fracasado, que estamos cayendo en una trampa, que no sabemos a lo que nos enfrentamos, que será nuestra ruina, que vamos camino a nuestro Waterloo. Pero cuando Dios nos conceda la victoria, los mismos que hoy dicen todo eso cambiarán su discurso. Dirán que siempre fue fácil, que cualquiera podía hacerlo, que las pandillas de Haití no eran tan peligrosas como se pensaba. En fin, nunca los hemos escuchado y no vamos a empezar ahora. Todos los que se han enlistado son creyentes y hemos encomendado esta misión a Dios, mientras que las pandillas de Haití son satánicas y es de conocimiento público que hacen sacrificios humanos. Dios nos concederá la victoria. El Creador del Universo está con nosotros. Deuteronomio 28:7 “Jehová derrotará a tus enemigos que se levantaren contra ti; por un camino saldrán contra ti, y por siete caminos huirán de delante de ti”.
¿BUKELE Y SU WATERLOO? Con el anuncio del envío hacia Haiti, desde El Salvador, de un contingente de 3000 militares, cuya misión es encontrar a los 4 miembros de las fuerzas armadas de ese país, secuestrados el pasado domingo, cuando penetraron en territorio dominado por las pandillas y fueron atacados por una pandilla de irregulares armados, se avizoran en las próximas horas fuertes enfrentamientos armados. A estas horas, y sabiendo cómo se resuelven las cosas en Haití, las probabilidades de que estos militares continúen vivos son mínimas, así que si no hay posibilidad de negociar nada, y por lo tanto lo que se plantea es un enfrentamiento armado entre tropas de El Salvador y las pandillas que son dueñas del territorio donde fueron atacados y secuestrados los militares centroamericanos. Según lo publicado en la prensa internacional, los responsables son dos organizaciones criminales que dominan el área de “Croix des Bouquets”, una de ellas dirigida por Claude Celestin, quien es cabeza de la pandilla Chen Mechan (perros rabiosos), y Wilson Joseph (“Lammo San Jou) líder de la banda 400 Mawozo. En el día de ayer, este último desafió públicamente al presidente Nayib Bukele en un vídeo publicado en las redes sociales, donde advirtió que no se irá de Haití, y mostró miles de municiones y pertrechos con arma de diversos calibres, que según el están esperando a los salvadoreños. Tenemos entonces la bandeja servida para un enfrentamiento armado a solo 45 kms de la frontera de la República Dominicana y Haití, de un ejército de pandilleros armados sin nada que perder, frente a tropas regulares de El Salvador, que pelearán una guerra urbana en las calles de un país que no es el suyo y es absolutamente desconocido. Ya en el pasado reciente, los Estados Unidos en 1994 mando 20,000 soldados e intentó organizar a Haití para que se volviera a la senda de lo que ellos llaman democracia, y luego en el 2004 invadieron de nuevo junto a Canada, lo que terminó en la creación de una fuerza multinacional, la Minustah, que terminó en el más absoluto fracaso, es decir, estamos metidos en un tema que no tiene solución. Si hay alguien que tiene experiencia en combatir pandillas lo es Nayib Bukele, el presidente de el Salvador, su historia de combate a las “Maras” está a la vista de todos, solo que Haití no es el terreno amigo donde peleó esa guerra, un país de habla y cultura hispana donde jugaba de local, el país caribeño es un transplante de África en América, con una historia de violencia típica de las sociedades primitivas. Cuando Napoleón envió a sus tropas a sofocar la revolución haitiana en 1802, pensó que miles de solados podrían devolver la colonia a sus dueños, pero solo un año después, Dessalines y la fiebre amarilla los obligó a rendirse, ¿será Haití el Waterloo de Bukele?. El futuro dirá.

What sort of weird magic is this. Campaigning against the ANC and not the DA. GARSH!
LGE 2026 | The Freedom Front Plus is targeting ANC strongholds ahead of the 4 November polls, with former ANC members Siphiwe Mhlongo of Mabopane and Daniel Makgobola of Soweto contesting under the party's banner.
