- Every metro to create a dedicated team for one large integrated development or regeneration precinct- regular competition in media space

“Once sold, it is lost to the market, available to the highest bidder, which inevitably excludes the 75% of Capetonians who earn less than R22,000 a month. It really does show that the City lacks long-term commitment to affordable housing,”

Budget (MTBPS) continues the crazy self destruction:
- Cutting R1 bn from HIV/Aids programme;
- Cutting R2.9 bn from Universities;
- Cutting R1.7 bn from social distress grant; and
- Cutting R1.5 bn from School Infrastructure.
This simply does not meet Constitutional muster..

housing for all." @antonioguterres #worldhabitatday2023
But cashiers at your fave Woolies earn less than R4000 per month? It would take a cashier more than 80 months to earn what the CEO earns in a day = R335,529.
And the people who reported their salaries still gave them a 4 out of 5 star average. Yho shame. #woolworths #picknpay
