And Lungisa given uninterrupted time to rubbish judges & make defamatory statements after conviction..with microphone & camera rolling. Weeks later, he quietly apologised after judges threatened legal action. Same newsroom was nowhere to be seen. But damage done! That's editorial
Don't forget Carl Niehaus....

We don’t have a democracy any more. We have an oligarchy - where a small group of elites war with each over who they’ll sell themselves to, and for how much. There’s no ideology to any of it. It’s just pure greed. And utter selfishness.

Leaders who expect every one of their staff to be perfect workers will struggle to lead. Organize your school or company or organization around the strengths of every staff member and you will be surprised how easy it is to deal with their limitations, and your own – at Cape Town, South Africa

So sad to hear of the passing of my good friend Dame Edna Everage. The world is poorer without you! Sterkte suster. #barryhumphries

All part of the cover-up of massive corruption at Eskom just before De Ruiter appears in Parliament. Let's see how "highly rated" finance minister Godongwana spins this one...

Mbeki refused to listen to Eskom’s advice to invest in additional power generation. Zuma and the Gupta’s treated it like their own Spaza shop. Koko continued Molefe’s freeze on PPA’s - all while ANC embedded cadre corruption in the entity. That’s what got us here- not de Ruyter

The Ngcobo report is shoddy, often accepting gossip as prima facie evidence. To say CR intentionally broke the constitution because he owns a farm (he never hid it) is silly. What if SARB, Hawks, PP find him innocent after he resigns? vryeweekblad.com/nuus-en-pol… via @vryeweekblad

Bit of drama in my office today. Staff wanted to know when we "break up." I told them the 24th of December. And when must we be back they asked, through the tears. The 26th, I said. Uncontrolled sobbing. I should probably tell them at some point that I meant January – at Stellenbosch, South Africa

Ukraine is caught up in a devastating war, yet its trains are still running. In peaceful South Africa, on the other hand...

Don't play innocent, Ms Sisulu, you called the black judges of the Constitutional Court "House Negroes" and "mentally colonised Africans" in your original article
