This corruption letter will slap more than Knysna to attention. Desperate to hang onto power, the leadership of the Democratic Alliance has been leopard crawling through the fynbos and ostrich droppings in our Garden Route towns. There are forces afoot, so this letter cannot be considered an honest step towards accountability by the Western Cape Government (WC). But it is interesting. WHAT’S IN THE LETTER? The letter was sent by MEC Local Government Anton Bredell to Knysna Speaker Titi Gombo (ANC). The many corruption and maladministration issues within appear to … Read the full article…

The 3 Stages of Municipal Corruption (South Africa)

Mike Hampton Posted on by

The 3 Stages of Municipal Corruption (A Guide for Politicians and Municipal Managers): 1. We cover-up our corruption through denial, omission and propaganda. 2. We only admit there’s a problem after it explodes. Then reassure the Public that we’re in control and fixing it (but be careful not to provide timelines or take direct responsibility). 3. Pretend problem fixed by redeploying as few friends as possible. Use own crisis to make Public fearful. Then sell Public land and take new loans to fill hole.

Will the real Phumzile van Damme please stand up

Mike Hampton Posted on by

This week, the DA’s Phumzile van Damme claimed that she wasn’t as nice as Mmusi Maimane, but is she as bad as Helen Zille? Helen and Phumzile, thanks for the twar entertainment. Yes, even a whitie such as me knows there’s a white cabal but racism and kleptocracy aren’t the only issues. The most important, to us folk in the dirt, is corruption. All DA ‘black leaders’ are blue and orange, only servants or wannabees, if they protect DA crime. It’s ridiculous that John ‘Kortbroek’ Steenhuisen is relevant. Bonginkosi has … Read the full article…

Mayor Ricky and Manager Louis, your cover-up of corruption is rejected

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Mayor Elrick van Aswegen and Acting Municipal Manager Dr Louis Scheepers, your cover-up of corruption is rejected. COVER-UP REJECTED I approached you with good intention to help Knysna. You responded with ambush. What you did to me in our telephone conference yesterday was unacceptably unproductive. You deliberately ensured that not one topic could be discussed. That you did it whilst pretending to be reasonable and claiming to be helpful makes you chameleon sharks. You cannot be trusted. Consequently, I’m going to acknowledge what you are and be necessarily direct. If … Read the full article…
