Dewa Mavhinga, will Human Rights Watch stand for me against the corrupt?

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Dewa Mavhinga, as the Southern African Director of Human Rights Watch, will you stand for me against the corrupt? Will you be the first NGO to show no favouritism to the Democratic Alliance (DA)? I hate adding this but it’s uncomfortable fact that the two things most ‘justice NGOs’ in South Africa have in common are similar ‘liberal’ funders and their refusal to defend me against the fake liberal DA. Together, they result in third common denominator – hypocrisy. For the belief in human rights to exist, there has to … Read the full article…

CXpress, newspaper supporting DA corruption

Mike Hampton Posted on by

The CXpress newspaper printed a one-sided story about me, at the beginning of this month. It related to the High Court order to shut down my website, stop my book, and arrest me. You can read it in the pdf reader at the bottom of this page (thanks to it being reposted in ShowMe Knysna). Nowhere therein does anyone mention freedom of speech, especially that special sub-category, INFORMATION IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST. The propaganda piece was instigated by regular protagonists, married couple ex-Knysna DA Deputy Mayor Esme Jefferys and ex-municipal … Read the full article…
