Mini Budget Speech, Massive Doom & Gloom

Mike Hampton Posted on 30th Oct 2019 by mikehampton1st Nov 2020
mini budget speech south africa

Minister Finance Tito Mboweni is to be credited for delivering overdue honesty regarding the state of South Africa’s economy. He did so during the medium term budget speech, what some call the mini-budget. It’s also good news that the National Prosecuting Authority’s budget is going to radically increase. But positivity dies there, overwhelmed by a storm we have little chance of clearing. BUDGET INTENTIONS The intended unbundling of Eskom, and SAA  partnership with private companies, will be stopped by unions. The R59-billion Eskom bailout Eskom just received is harsh fact … Read the full article…

Voter Frustration: SA, our country without a plan… again!

Mike Hampton Posted on 8th Apr 2019 by mikehampton1st Nov 2020

“I constantly make the observation that no-one has a plan. EFF Well the EFF has a plan, to take all the land, all the houses, all the businesses and make it all owned by them to be leased back to you at a nice nest feathering price. DA The DA has plan, they want to run the country as a developers delight where the land is there to be utilized (read their environmental policies), and then they can charge and charge to their little heart’s delight because imagine all the … Read the full article…

Civilised?

civilised light

Light… sun slips away from us and clouds become fondant shapes in the ebbing day… Dark… 50 sexual shades becoming one primeval electrical company called Eskom… The bat flickers from visibility to invisibility between the trees… Light… my fire yellows and oranges like a distant house lit by candles glowing through curtain… the odd oasis of solar power unmoving whilst car lights shine like concerts on tar… Streetlight… impassive, waiting… artificial life bursts on an island… Dark… those last seconds when true night squeezes my hand goodbye as electricity surges … Read the full article…

The Ubuntu Party is the Ultimate Stupid Vote

Mike Hampton Posted on 29th Jul 2016 by mikehampton1st Nov 2020

The Ubuntu Party is stupid and dangerous and stupid and dangerous and stooopid! At their meeting in Knysna, South Africa, i felt like i was at the beginning of a cult. Hippies & conspiracy nuts sacrificed intelligence and the well-being of our town to their intergalactic leader, Michael Tellinger, who soaked in the blood of their worship. Meeting Tellinger was an absolute disappointment. He relies on charm and, where that fails, arrogance. He was unable to provide practical answers supporting the Ubuntu Party’s manifesto. THE ‘FREE ELECTRICITY’ ELECTION LIE Running … Read the full article…

Electricity Price up 9.4%

Mike Hampton Posted on 2nd Mar 2016 by mikehampton1st Nov 2020

Brian Molefe, head of Eskom, reacts to NERSA approving less than he asked for. NERSA explains why they gave the 9.4% increase: Only 9.4% hike will have consequences, says Eskom’s Molefe  The risk of load shedding could increase as a result of energy regulator Nersa’s decision to only give Eskom half of its required tariff increase on Tuesday. Eskom CEO Brian Molefe said the decision to only approve a 9.4% electricity price increase doesn’t help Eskom’s financial sustainability and “will have operational consequences”. “We will do our best to minimise … Read the full article…
