WOW! Qatari errand boy @TuckerCarlson’s views fell a whopping 71% after Russian bot farms were taken out in a Ukrainian airstrike.
Helen Zille will definitely be “Queen” or at least mayor of Joburg for a day- let me explain why….

Today my thoughts are with Joshua Mollel, 21yr-old agriculture student from Tanzania. Hamas savages racially abused him then executed him on the spot on #October7. Dragged his body into Gaza and Kept him for over 700 days. Israel took him home at the end for him to rest in peace.
.@DIRCO_ZA thinks its so brave & smart, but as Gerrie Coetzee said "he hit me with a left hook and I thought to myself ..ohoh here comes trouble".... @Zwandid and @RonaldLamola are willing to sacrifice all of South Africa on their ego and jihadist delusions - they must be fired

The President is about to address the nation about #GBV at 7pm - we are just not sure if he will be in favour or against …. #ramaphosa #SouthAfrica

Just clocked that Cyril Ramaphosa has been President or deputy president of this country for just under 40% of its entire democratic life.
His fingerprints over the country’s abject decline are staggering. To call him a false prophet would be an understatement.

The judiciary system in Iran has confirmed 74 lashes for Parastoo Ahmadi for the “crime” of singing.
She sang without compulsory hijab. She hurt no one. She simply used her voice.
Now she faces 74 lashes, a two-year travel ban, and a two-year ban from audiovisual activities.
This should not be only an Iranian women’s issue. Every singer, every artist, every woman, every man who believes in basic human dignity should stand with Parastoo.
Say her name. Share her story. Use your platform. 74 lashes for singing should outrage all of us.
Parastoo said:
“I am Parastoo, a girl who cannot stay silent and refuses to stop singing for the people she loves. This is my right, one I will never surrender. I sing for this land I adore, for the soil of my homeland. Here, in this sacred corner of our beloved Iran, listen to my voice in this imagined concert, and dream of a free and beautiful nation.”
Hey @DawieScholtz are we correct - with only 1 name on the PR list in Joburg for ASA & EFF - they will each have a max of 1 PR councilor at the first meeting of the City Council where Mayors & Committee are elected - potentially giving @helenzille the job? @waynesussman
It’s anarchy at the ANC…
Ramaphosa is on sick leave and no one is running the country. Maybe that’s a good thing…
With President Ramaphosa’s time running out, what next?

It’s scandalous - have you ever seen such incompetence?
Hot on the heels of completely buggering up the announcement of their mayoral candidates- the ANC has now completely messed up their lists for theNovember election as well.

ANC taking on the IEC on this issue was a bad move. Now the court might also hear how Mbalula took hours to pass the CAPTCHA test on IEC's website cos he kept selecting squares that did not contain traffic lights.
IEC tells court ANC uploaded candidate list 5mins before deadline.

With the ANC polling in Johannesburg in the teens no one wants to be the ANC’s mayoral candidate for Joburg. It had been widely expected widely that the ANC would announce The Rev Frank Chikane as its Jozi candidate - but it didn’t happen
