This is what being an effective opposition is about! ActionSA in action in parliament, well done @AlanDBeesley
My estimate of the hole in the Road Accident Funds accounts of R500 billion was vindicated this week when former senior actuarial manager Itayi Charakupa — dismissed after challenging the Fund’s valuations — confirmed its accuracy before SCOPA. The consequences are huge!

Hospitals aren’t required to tell patients when they’re part of the 340B program. There’s no sign on the door, no disclosure on the bill and no guarantee that the discount ever reaches the person paying. The program was built for transparency, but the incentives took over, and

The consequences of circulating false propaganda are that you end up being, “hoist by your own petard” @CilliersB @ME_Beaumont
The last party who should be politicking on water in Tshwane is the one that presided over the cholera deaths of 31 people in Hammanskraal after 7 years of leading government.

This woman, @nasiphim, makes me so proud to be a South African. Contrary to past beliefs, our country has more than enough leadership, leaders that are hardworking, ethical, with commitment to Social Justice.
Tshwane Mayor Dr Nasiphi Moya says her first year in office has been a test of leadership, patience, and conviction. #Politics #NasiphiMoya #ActionSA #Tshwane #2026Elections Read on https://t.co/zx98JBh2R0

Buckley update! Beethoven recording! On November 24, 2025, WFB would have turned 100. On that day, I will release my recording of his favorite Diabelli Variations by Beethoven made on WFB's beloved Bösendorfer piano several months after he passed away in 2008. Here's a short

The IEC previously refused to investigate the clearly unlawful debt settlement deal between the ANC and Ezulweni Investments due to a lack of prima facie evidence. Now we've given them the evidence in the form of the debt settlement agreement. Will they act?

You will judge a country by how it treats its old and vulnerable. It is absolutely outrageous that we spend R17000 per month on prisoners monthly while we only spend R2320 on our elderly. We spend...

For all the Giants fans out there, you can blame @BarstoolBigCat for the loss last week thanks to a single text he sent. @PFFShow presented by @ChevyTrucks

O’Sullivan clearly became accustomed to phoning or messaging people with his threats and intimidation. However when you’ve done that to enough people you build up resentment and I see that this resentment is gaining strong momentum.
When I was Editor of Business Day he once called me on a Sunday afternoon, “instructing” me to retract a story. He kept telling me he has a “docket”. I told him it must be a dossier because he’s not a cop. That set him off! I ended the call abruptly because of the screaming.

We are voting ActionSA. Thank you. BYE👋👋
To prevent Johannesburg from becoming full-blown African failed city, residents in 2026 must vote for competence, not on colour, ideology, slogans, dancing, singing performance. Stop voting for people who are violent, corrupt, who weaponise divisions. Talking to The Telegraph.

What News24 will not tell you is that when Nasiphi Moya took over as Mayor, she inherited a practically broken water network from Cilliers Brink: Non-Revenue Losses: 38% Real Losses: 38% Water leaks backlog: 3,964
The ANC coalition in Tshwane is spending hundreds of millions on water tankers, this while Hammanskraal remains without piped water and city pipes failing to reticulate properly. Social media isn’t reality.

Just shows that some people have short recollection capacity and like to blame others for incompetence and ineptitude it’s a reflection syndrome
@Martin_Nel_99 @Action4SA @nasiphim This is during Brinks tenure. Failed to maintain water infrastructure. Leading to massive water losses and a reliance on water tankers

South Africa, listen and listen attentively. We have public representatives who want to serve you selflessly and those who want to maintain the status quo of no service delivery to YOU. It is through your vote that you can make things work for this country, for our citizens.

Governance is NEAR 🗳️ Voting on the first House of Stake sensing proposals is now live. You have 7 days to stake & delegate your veNEAR to make your voice heard. To participate in future binding votes, veNEAR will need to be staked & delegated PRIOR to a proposal going live.

Change has come to ward 7 Ramotshere Moiloa municipality. It can come to your ward too if you want change and to Fix your municipality. Thanks for going to celebrate with the victors @HermanMashaba and @MbahareKekana_
A deeply moving moment to celebrate a democratic victory, delivered by young and old, working together to democratically remove a government that failed them for 31 years. Ward 7 Ramotshere Moiloa Municipality in the Northwest.
