    In Primrose, Ekhuruleni. Looking at the skyscrapers of the inner city of Johannesburg. Ponte Tower looming out on the horizon. Young children must stand here, similar to kids in New Jersey looking over at New York City and dream of going to the big city one day....

    Thank you for sharing your astute and interesting analysis on the elections Wayne!

    Some things to look out for province by province, district by district. I am battling to access some data from the IEC website so can not pass comment on some of KZN or any of Mpumalanga at this stage. I hope the site gets fixed soon. Ill start with the Eastern Cape.

    Why is it that our State is afraid of workers ? We are not terrorists but progressive Workers . We demand a Living Wage . Discussing theory of Pedagogy of the Opressed is not a criminal offense. Why abducting and torturing us?

    Lori Gilbert Kaye z"l was killed in the shooting at the Poway Synagogue in San Diego. Her friends describe her as "a jewel of our community." Lori was killed because she was Jewish. May her memory be a blessing.

    My cousin Jess Drury & two colleagues were abducted today in Harare by four plainclothes men in an unmarked vehicle. This is the face of Zimbabwe’s brutal regime which infringes human rights whilst South Africa & the world stand by silently.
