"From this day forward I will take to the streets of Johannesburg – from Alexandra to Soweto, from Sandton to Orange Farm, from Hillbrow to Lenasia, from Roodepoort to Midrand, from Diepsloot to Eldorado Park. I will hear the hopes and fears of the people of this great city"

Bike heaven meets wine nirvana. Riders on this year’s @CapeEpic had exceptional single track (and sublime views) for the start of this year’s race; supporters (and hard-working event MCs) had the undervalued charm of @DurbanvilleWine to delight in. Glorious first few days.

7. What is going on here isn’t a fight over a 1% VAT increase. It is a battle over the future of SA’s economy, and the life chances of the South African people. Because if we don’t turn the economy around a VAT increase is going to be the least of our problems! END

Only good thing that I can say about the VAT increase, is that it doesn’t apply when nearly all your bank fees are zero like @BankZeroSA
