Stream of Consciousness: Tonight I interview the author K.M. Breakey about his works, specifically his recent book, "Never, Never and Never Again". We will also be discussing the broad topic of crime in South Africa.

Hope to see everyone there!

Any thoughts?

How is this not racist?

and so it begins

Sits on top of the Makhado coal rift

First two farms on the list have been approached by the ANC.

But apparently, there is no list.

and what now? Its starts with the farms

I feel like a jew in Berlin... How bad does it have to get before we actually panic..?

They are expropriating land without compensation!!! They are actually doing it

Is SA becoming just another African failure story?

@Jerm Becoming?

Its pure insanity everyday .. we have just got used to it

Necklacing kids.. skinning elephants alive.. murder.. rape.. torture.. burning everything

Just another day...

@RaRi

I mean technically

That's not wrong

😂

Registering a new political party requires 500 registered voters and a token registration fee

The Nothing Left Party

NLP

Contesting an election is a different story.

The IEC requires a deposit, the amount varying based on how many wards, municipalities and metros you target

To contest everything in SA will require a deposit of around R480'000

If you win, your deposit's refunded. If not, tough luck.

Lets start small with Cape Town 😃

A single metro should be about R30k

Those prices are from the 2016 elections, but I haven't seen any announcements about a big change to these policies yet

A lot of smaller parties are unhappy about these costs, obviously

I'll contribute 10k

You can establish a brand, governance structure, constitution, and the operational framework long before you actually register at the IEC
