This advert is aimed at the DA base in order to get them out on 29 May, it's not meant to win any other party supporters or undecideds over.

I’ve lived and worked in the US, Europe, Middle East & Africa. Have never come across a single South African doing elementary trade like operating a Spaza Shop or doing hair on the side of the road. These sectors are reserved for locals to promote local economic prosperity.

In February, South Africa got 10.4% of its electricity from solar PV - a new record for the country.

That includes rooftop and grid-scale solar.

Renewables combined held a 16.1% share of the electricity mix.

With all the government programs & laws to help black people catch-up - from BEE to minimum wage laws to no-fee education to social grants - South Africa's inequality has risen since 1994. Clearly these programs aren't helping.

What's going on?

In a speech to first time voters in Langa township at the weekend President CR said govt has a plan to create 5m jobs in 5 years. But there is no such plan. And ANC manifesto has no jobs target. Why did he have to lie to the kids? Just asking

The short of it is; Shell is leaving. They've wanted out for a long time. They don't like it here. All the other fuel majors achieve higher profit margins here than they do, it makes sense to sell and has for ages.

These people think we are stupid. They loot and loot and then come election time they start telling us “white people will bring back apartheid”. They pull the race card.

They can go fool those rural Gogos who can’t read or write. Never me!

Nothing spells out-of-touch like a political leader arriving in a G-Wagon in a community that his party has not provided with water for a few years.

Its like an invitation to send the ANC to the opposition benches.

In 20 years, I reckon most of the petrol station/retail shop properties will be obsolete (except long-distance routes). Shell's decision to get rid of its forecourt/retail ops in SA should be viewed in that light.

Govt says economy created 8m jobs since 1994. But labour force increased by 16.7m. # of unemployed increased 8m to 11.7m. Unemployment rate increased to 41.1% from 31.5%. GDP growth was too low to create jobs for new entrants - 558k a year - and 3.7m who were unemployed in 1994

Prices have been consistently rising faster than people’s income - signs of a struggling economy.

When we watched to see how the President plans to address this, he told us about Tintswalo from Eastern Cape, threatened to sign NHI bill, and extended the R350 grant further.

How do you celebrate 30 years of freedom when it isn't safe to even walk or drive in your own town or city because of crime?

For a business to succeed, a business owner must do the right thing everyday. The ANC in charge of failing South Africa is like a business owner who took over a business 30 years ago, ran it into the ground and still blame the previous owner for it's failures.

Ridley Scott’s GLADIATOR was released 24 years ago today. A sword and sandals classic, and the film that made a megastar of Russell Crowe, the making of story is worthy of the Colosseum…
