South Africa needs to settle the contradiction between immigration policy and constitutional refugee protections. You cannot have immigration laws designed to regulate who may enter, remain and work in the country, while judicial interpretations continually expand protections around those very areas without clearly defining the limits. The result? A system that becomes increasingly difficult to enforce.

Deputy Chief Justice Mlambo is an advocate for refugees in his personal capacity. How can he be expected to interpret immigration laws without prejudice that favours his beliefs? @ConCourtSA #nationalshutdown

LGE 2026 | ANC First Deputy Secretary-General Nomvula Mokonyane says many households rely on backyard tenants for income, but argues such arrangements must be regularised and declared, with ward committees kept informed.

When are you taking yours from the Kenyatta family guys

There are just too many things making people angry about the government in South Africa, this GNU needs to tread very carefully amid high cost of living , skyhigh fuel and electricity, high unemployment and illegal immigration crisis

South Africa can’t keep running an asylum system with no clear limits, no serious planning and no regard for the pressure it places on already strained communities. Why should asylum seekers travel thousands of kilometres to South Africa when safer neighbouring countries may

I think because people go to Cape Town once a year they believe they can deal with Helen Zilles expensive cities, they don’t mind taking a chance with her in Joburg. Take it from us residents, that place is suffocatingly expensive for black people.

People are concerned about South Africa's ability to refine crude oil because some refineries may be down, this leads to increased imports of refined product, such as; diesel and petrol. Reliance on certain countries during the Middle East tension does creates risk, obviously. There are negative effects that will ripple across the global economy, and South Africa isn't immune to such. However, there is also plenty of fear mongering, too, making things seem a lot worse than what they actually are. 🔸Based on the 2024 figures, Oman and India accounted for 34 percent (3.6 billion litres) and 20 percent (2.1 billion litres) of South Africa’s diesel imports, respectively. 🔸The UAE and India accounted for 35 percent (1.4 billion litres) and 24 percent (971 million litres) of South Africa’s petrol imports in 2024, respectively. Italy came in third at 12 percent (489 million litres) and Saudi Arabia at 11 percent (4445 million litres). Now with Oman, its geography allows much of its oil to be exported through terminals such as (1) Duqm and (2) Sohar located outside the strait of Hormuz, helping the country avoid a complete disruption to their exports. (Now you see why these terminals were also hit by drones, it ties into that ability to export). __________________________ Some people are hell-bent on seeing South Africa suffer and to cause more panic than necessary. So we have refining capacity, albeit strained, yes. With most crude oil coming from African markets. This is potential ✅ Yes, we import refined product too, but it is also from diversified sources, albeit with exposure to the Middle East, but their is some resilience ✅ -Yes disruptions will occur -Yes increased demand may effect our imports -Yes there will be negative effects But my point being is that, South Africa isn't entirely exposed, our energy needs and imports are diversified to an extent where South Africa can mitigate some of the effects. Not all the effects, but at a least there is something. That is the point.

Something big is BREWING! South Africa is a ticking time bomb, and when it explodes, this government will be responsible! ⚠️💣🇿🇦⏰
