🔸You have no idea how lucky you are. Our lot just decided that elections won’t happen in the 2028 cycle and amended the Constitution to extend their term with no referendum or competent consultation from the people. This was after they illegally removed validly elected MPs and replaced them with their own to achieve a fake two thirds majority. They have since appointed their stooge as the Leader of the Opposition. It’s a mess.
We need new leaders.🇿🇼

⚠️ The fuel behind the DA and Freedom Front Plus growth among Black People ⚠️
Let’s drop the polite diplomatic speak and state the brutal truth: the ANC didn't just lose power in metros and provinces because of a bad campaign; they bled it through unadulterated greed, incompetence, and systematic looting. They are simply criminals occupying government positions.
When you treat the state like a personal feeding trough, turn public entities into cash cows, tun the country into failed Africa’s rescuer, keep half the population unemployed and force citizens to live through a decade of catastrophic load-shedding and dry taps, people stop caring about historical sentiment. They want survival. The massive migration of votes to the DA and the Freedom Front Plus isn't a betrayal of history; it is a desperate referendum on ANC failure.
The ANC and black leaders need to stop hiding behind the ghost of apartheid. Dead apartheid does not fill a dry tap, fix a collapsed sewage pipe, or secure a hijacked street. When basic governance collapses completely, citizens do not give a damn about the skin color of the leader keeping the lights on versus a corrupt, bribe-taking cadre destroying the infrastructure.
Black South Africans are sick and tired of a black leadership class that uses “struggle credentials” as a shield for pathetic performance. Competence has no race. If you can't keep the country running, pack your bags and get out of the way.

Unfortunately, the chronically online leftists have built their entire political identity around feeling morally and intellectually superior to everyone else. Add ideological echo chambers and an inability to tolerate disagreement, and you get a pretty insufferable combination.

BREAKING: 🇵🇾 What just happened in PARAGUAY is a WARNING for everyone on earth.
More than 3 million people (60% of Paraguay's adult population) have lost access to EVERYTHING. Their bank accounts. Their pensions. Frozen. Inaccessible.
Paraguay’s largest digital bank, Ueno Bank, has collapsed.
The president of the Central Bank (who is deeply connected to Ueno) has just RESIGNED. Eight high-level executives including the founder and the Bank President are being detained.
The people have taken to the streets to demand their money back. And rightly so.
This is the model Milei and the rest of the Epstein class are pushing. This could happen ANYWHERE. Best to save in physical gold and physical silver, imo.

MKP is upsetting me in KZN. This is going to make life even worse here. People forget that these are literally ANC comrades. Why is it so easy to fool people this way?

South Africa is officially the online gambling capital of the world. 🇿🇦
Nearly 1 in 3 internet users gambled online in the past month, compared to just 10.2% in the US.
This isn’t an achievement to celebrate. It’s a warning sign about financial desperation, addiction and the growing cost of living.

People like to praise Mansa Musa for being the wealthiest man in Africa or the world at that time, people also like praise ancient Egypt…. You think they were successful by being activist socialists who were anti war? lol
Mansa Musa had an army of 100,000 warriors who looted raided and pillaged neighbouring countries/regions to expand his wealth…. Many of you don’t mind promoting him though do you.

Now that you’re done stuffing your face and chanting at rallies. And dancing with your faves, don’t forget to make a submission on the proposed Employment Services Amendment Bill [B16-2026]. It will severely change the unemployment/employment landscape. Deadline is on Friday (6 Nov)

Johannesburg is in ruins and senior ANC leaders want to spend their time on here going after me for daring to ask people to “vote wisely”.
That tells you everything you need to know about how we got here.

That’s how MS-13 was created too. Crips, bloods, and established Mexican gangs were kidnapping and murdering random Central American men who kept money in their wallet because banks didn’t use to serve illegal aliens.
It created the most dangerous gang in human history.

Naturally, we'd love to know about Zimbabwean rugby at a global level, given that the writer is Zimbabwean and our progress post 2017 reflects the opposite of their pay-walled critique. Nathi siyadinwa kukucetyiswa ngabantu abasengxakini enkulu kuneyethu, if ungamamela nakuSAfm.

I’m glad a British Nigerian woman asked it.
“If Caribbean countries are asking Britain for a formal apology for Britain’s role in the transatlantic slave trade, will they also be asking the same of the descendants of African kingdoms, rulers and merchants who captured, sold and profited from the trade?”
Slavery was an evil in which people from every continent and region participated. We should be honest about the whole history, not select the parts that are politically convenient today, especially given Britain's leading role in ending the transatlantic slave trade.

On demands for reparations, whether through cash or debt relief, we have been down this track before. Twenty-five years ago, Jubilee 2000, Drop the Debt and Make Poverty History argued that cancelling the debts of poorer countries would give them a fresh start. More than $100 billion of debt was eventually written off, but many of those countries have since built up even bigger debts. Labour are already spending too much on Britain's welfare state, now is not the time for Andy Burnham to be providing global welfare.
There is no reason British taxpayers today should be held financially responsible for things that happened generations before any of us were born. And I have even less patience for political elites in commonwealth countries who don’t know how to make their own citizens prosperous now looking for another opportunity to blame Britain.
As Prime Minister, Andy Burnham should be Britain’s greatest defender. Instead, he is writing articles saying we need to confront our history (as if we haven't done enough of that) and considering another formal historical apology. Tony Blair already expressed Britain’s deep sorrow and regret for our role in the slave trade nearly twenty years ago. There is no need to do so again.
This is all another navel-gazing distraction. The Commonwealth should be looking forward, not endlessly backwards. That means economic partnerships to make us all richer and deeper military and security cooperation against common threats. If every Commonwealth summit becomes an exercise in presenting Britain with demands for cash then we need to start asking if it is worth the effort.
