I thought it was a nice touch by the French to switch the lights off…make the winners feel at home….

- It is NOT "the South African variant..." It is "a variant first identified by South African scientists" #thatisall
- The way it should be. For everyone. Always.World class: left Ellis Park at 20:29 on @PRASA_Group to Park Station; took @TheGautrain shortly after, left Sandton station just after 21:00, rewatching @Springboks vs @AllBlacks at 21:20. Well done @LionsRugbyCo, @CityofJoburgZA and all concerned!
- Agree wholeheartedly. This isn’t the f*****g Oscars.A call to the media houses covering SONA. @eNCA @Newzroom405 @SABCNews @TheCapeArgus @News24 @METROFMSA @CapeTalk @Radio702 @Die_Burger @CapeTimesSA
- The president says stage 4 loadshedding comes as a "disturbing shock." Lucky him. I have no power with which to get a shock
- I would love a tourism minister who would single-mindedly focus on the job of getting visitors to SA and getting them to spend their money and get jobs going. It could be a great showcase for a real leader to demonstrate their skills at driving growth and opportunities.
- Petty, vindictive and bloody stupid. It just became impossible to hire anyone with any moral fibre to do the job. This response tells you all you need to know about why SOE’s are in the mess they are in…
- Decades of overspending without a growth strategy, industrial-scale plundering of the fiscus and you get to a point where a country runs out of money.
- So, @Netcare_Limited is on a massive drive to cut waste. They have distributed 100 000 pairs of these school shoes, with plans to double by September 2023. They are made from what? Drips. It takes six drips to be repurposed into tough, wearable footwear.
- ….aaaand it’s a wrap…thanks all.
- Thanks everyone for being so kind in response to my loss of objectivity regarding the @GrantPattison conference call earlier. It’s very hard to be objective when so many livelihoods are at risk. There will be many more failures the longer the lockdown lasts. That depends on us.
- Damn. I can’t wish my 90-year old dad “Happy Birthday.” He’s playing golf with his buddies. What a legend. Born this day in 1928. He doesn’t know what trending is. Make him trend. #happybirthdaybert
- Government destroys SAA. Appoints a Business Rescue Practitioner. Doesn’t like solution. Interferes. “This will necessitate a review of the BRP recent announcement.” No it doesn’t. The law provides for independence in BRP process. It’s why it’s structured that way. Brutal fact.
